# Test::MooseX::Daemonize(3pm)

Tool to help test MooseX::Daemonize applications

## NAME

Test::MooseX::Daemonize - Tool to help test MooseX::Daemonize applications

## VERSION

version 0.22

## SYNOPSIS

```
    use File::Spec::Functions;
    use File::Temp qw(tempdir);
    my $dir = tempdir( CLEANUP => 1 );
    ## Try to make sure we are in the test directory
    my $file = catfile( $dir, "im_alive" );
    my $daemon = FileMaker->new( pidbase => $dir, filename => $file );
    daemonize_ok( $daemon, 'child forked okay' );
    ok( -e $file, "$file exists" );
```

## DESCRIPTION

This module provides some basic Test::Builder-compatible test methods to use when writing tests for your MooseX::Daemonize-based modules.

## EXPORTED FUNCTIONS

- **daemonize\_ok ( $daemon, ?$msg )**

  This will attempt to daemonize your `$daemon` returning ok on success and not ok on failure.

- **check\_test\_output ( $daemon )**

  This is expected to be used with a `$daemon` which does the **Test::MooseX::Daemonize::Testable** role (included in this package -- see the source for more info). It will collect the test output from your daemon and apply it in the parent process by mucking around with Test::Builder stuff, again, read the source for more info. If we get time we will document this more thoroughly.
