# $Id: Hooks.pm,v 1.11 2003/03/02 11:52:09 m_ilya Exp $ package HTTP::WebTest::Plugin::Hooks; =head1 NAME HTTP::WebTest::Plugin::Hooks - Provides callbacks called during test run =head1 SYNOPSIS plugins = ( ::Hooks ) # do some test sequence initialization on_start = { My::init() } # do some test sequence deinitialization on_finish = { My::stop() } test_name = Name1 .... # do some test initialization on_request = { My::local_init() } end_test test_name = Name2 .... # define custom test on_response = ( { My::test() ? 'yes' : 'no' } => 'My test' ) end_test test_name = Name3 .... # call finalization code with returning any test results on_response = { My::finalize(); return [] } end_test =head1 DESCRIPTION This plugin module adds test parameters whose values are evaluated at specific times of the L test run. It can be used to do some initialization before doing test request, to do some finalization when test response is received or to implement user defined tests without writing a new plugin module. =cut use strict; use URI; use base qw(HTTP::WebTest::Plugin); =head1 TEST PARAMETERS =for pod_merge copy opt_params =head2 on_start The value of this test parameter is ignored. However, it is evaluted before the test sequence is run, so it can be used to do initalization before the test sequence run. =head3 Example See example in L. =head2 on_finish The value of this test parameter is ignored. However, it is evaluted before the test sequence is run, so it can be used to run finalization code when the test sequence is finished. =head3 Example See example in L. =head2 on_request The value of this test parameter is ignored. However, it is evaluted before the HTTP request is done, so it can be used to do initalization before the request. =head2 on_response This is a list parameter which is treated as test result. It is evaluted when the HTTP response for the test request is received. It can be used to define custom tests without writing new plugins. It can also be used to run some code when the HTTP response for the test request is received. =head3 Allowed values ( YESNO1, COMMENT1 YESNO2, COMMENT2 .... YESNON, COMMENTN ) Here C, C is a test result. C is either C if test is successful or C if it is not. C is a comment associated with this test. =head3 Example See example in L. =cut sub param_types { return q(on_start anything on_request anything on_response test_results on_finish anything); } # implements check for parameter type 'test_results' sub check_test_results { my $self = shift; my $param = shift; my $value = shift; my @spec = @_; # first of all check if it is a list $self->check_list($param, $value); # check if it has even number of elements unless(@$value % 2 == 0) { die "HTTP::WebTest: parameter '$param' is not a list with even number of elements"; } for my $i (0 .. @$value / 2 - 1) { my ($ok, $comment) = @$value[2 * $i, 2 * $i + 1]; $self->validate_value("$param\[$i]", $ok, 'yesno'); $self->validate_value("$param\[" .
