# Dist::Zilla::Plugin::CheckExtraTests(3pm)

check xt tests before release

## NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::CheckExtraTests - check xt tests before release

## VERSION

version 0.029

## SYNOPSIS

In your dist.ini:

```
  [CheckExtraTests]
```

## DESCRIPTION

Runs all xt tests before release.  Dies if any fail.  Sets RELEASE\_TESTING and AUTHOR\_TESTING.

If you use Dist::Zilla::Plugin::TestRelease, you should consider using Dist::Zilla::Plugin::RunExtraTests instead, which enables xt tests to run as part of `"[TestRelease]"` and is thus a bit more efficient as the distribution is only built once for testing.

## ATTRIBUTES

### default\_jobs

This attribute is the default value that should be used as the `"jobs"` argument for prerelease tests.

## SEE ALSO
