# Test2::Require::AuthorTesting(3perl)

Only run a test when the AUTHOR\_TESTING environment variable is set.

## NAME

Test2::Require::AuthorTesting - Only run a test when the AUTHOR\_TESTING environment variable is set.

## DESCRIPTION

It is common practice to write tests that are only run when the AUTHOR\_TESTING environment variable is set. This module automates the (admittedly trivial) work of creating such a test.

## SYNOPSIS

```
    use Test2::Require::AuthorTesting;
    ...
    done_testing;
```
