VERSION

This document describes Test::Effects::ONLY version 0.000001

SYNOPSIS

    {
        use Test::Effects::ONLY;
        # Test::Effects defaults to only testing specified effects in this scope
        {
            no Test::Effects::ONLY;
            # Test::Effects defaults to testing all effects in this scope
        }
        # Test::Effects still only testing specified effects here
    }
    # Test::Effects reverts to original behaviour here

DESCRIPTION

Using this module changes the default behaviour of Test::Effects's "effects_ok()" test.

Normally this test tests all side-effects, even those unspecified (unless explicitly told otherwise via the use of "ONLY()"). If this module is used in a code block, "effects_ok()" defaults to only running specified tests for the remainder of that block's lexical scope.

Note, however, that an explicit "ONLY => $boolean" option in any call to "<effects_ok()" overrides this lexical default.
