# KiokuDB::Test(3pm)

Reusable tests for KiokuDB backend authors.

## NAME

KiokuDB::Test - Reusable tests for KiokuDB backend authors.

## VERSION

version 0.57

## SYNOPSIS

```
    use Test::More;
    use KiokuDB::Test;
    use KiokuDB::Backend::MySpecialBackend;
    my $b = KiokuDB::Backend::MySpecialBackend->new( ... );
    run_all_fixtures( KiokuDB->new( backend => $b ) );
    done_testing();
```

## DESCRIPTION

This module loads and runs KiokuDB::Test::Fixtures against a KiokuDB directory instance.

## EXPORTS

- run\_all\_fixtures $dir

  - run\_all\_fixtures sub { return $dir }

  Runs all the KiokuDB::Test::Fixture objects against your dir.

  If you need a new instance of KiokuDB for every fixture, pass in a code reference.

  This will load all the modules in the KiokuDB::Test::Fixture namespace, and run them against your directory.

  Fixtures generally check for backend roles and skip unless the backend supports that set of features.
