# Test::Valgrind::Action::Captor(3pm)

Mock Test::Valgrind::Action for capturing output.

## NAME

Test::Valgrind::Action::Captor - Mock Test::Valgrind::Action for capturing output.

## VERSION

Version 1.19

## DESCRIPTION

This class provides helpers for saving, redirecting and restoring filehandles.

It's not meant to be used directly as an action.

## METHODS

### "new"

Just a croaking stub to remind you not to use this class as a real action.

### "save\_fh"

```
    $tva->save_fh($from, $mode);
    $tva->save_fh($from, $mode, $to);
```

Save the original filehandle `$from` opened with mode `$mode`, and redirect it to `$to` if it's defined or to */dev/null* otherwise.

### "restore\_all\_fh"

```
    $tva->restore_all_fh;
```

Restore all the filehandles that were saved with "save\_fh" to their original state.

The redirections aren't closed.
