# dh\_raku\_test(1)

## NAME

dh\_raku\_test -- automatically test perl 6 module packages

## SYNOPSIS

**dh\_raku\_test**

## DESCRIPTION

This script calls `"prove --exec raku -Ilib"` to test a Raku module package. It only does so if three conditions are met:

- •

  A 't' directory exists

- •

  The debhelper build option 'nocheck' is not set

### HOME directory

Before launching tests, the `"HOME"` directory is set to `"debian/tmp/home"`. This directory is cleaned up after the tests are done.

### Breaking build dependency loop

This script use to call c\<prove6\> but it caused a lot of problems because of dependency loop. Now only Perl's prove is used.
