-# Perl Testing Patterns
-
-Comprehensive testing strategies for Perl applications using Test2::V0, Test::More, prove, and TDD methodology.
-
-## When to Activate
-
-- Writing new Perl code (follow TDD: red, green, refactor)
-- Designing test suites for Perl modules or applications
-- Reviewing Perl test coverage
-- Setting up Perl testing infrastructure
-- Migrating tests from Test::More to Test2::V0
-- Debugging failing Perl tests
-
-## TDD Workflow
-
-Always follow the RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle.
-
-```perl
-# Step 1: RED — Write a failing test
-# t/unit/calculator.t
-use v5.36;
-use Test2::V0;
-
-use lib 'lib';
-use Calculator;
-
-subtest 'addition' => sub {
-    my $calc = Calculator->new;
-    is($calc->add(2, 3), 5, 'adds two numbers');
-    is($calc->add(-1, 1), 0, 'handles negatives');
-};
-
-done_testing;
-
-# Step 2: GREEN — Write minimal implementation
-# lib/Calculator.pm
-package Calculator;
-use v5.36;
-use Moo;
-
-sub add($self, $a, $b) {
-    return $a + $b;
-}
-
-1;
-
-# Step 3: REFACTOR — Improve while tests stay green
-# Run: prove -lv t/unit/calculator.t
-```
-
-## Test::More Fundamentals
-
-The standard Perl testing module — widely used, ships with core.
-
-### Basic Assertions
-
-```perl
-use v5.36;
-use Test::More;
-
-# Plan upfront or use done_testing
-# plan tests => 5;  # Fixed plan (optional)
-
-# Equality
-is($result, 42, 'returns correct value');
-isnt($result, 0, 'not zero');
-
-# Boolean
-ok($user->is_active, 'user is active');
-ok(!$user->is_banned, 'user is not banned');
-
-# Deep comparison
-is_deeply(
-    $got,
-    { name => 'Alice', roles => ['admin'] },
-    'returns expected structure'
-);
-
-# Pattern matching
-like($error, qr/not found/i, 'error mentions not found');
-unlike($output, qr/password/, 'output hides password');
-
-# Type check
-isa_ok($obj, 'MyApp::User');
-can_ok($obj, 'save', 'delete');
-
-done_testing;
-```
-
-### SKIP and TODO
-
-```perl
-use v5.36;
-use Test::More;
-
-# Skip tests conditionally
-SKIP: {
-    skip 'No database configured', 2 unless $ENV{TEST_DB};
-
-    my $db = connect_db();
-    ok($db->ping, 'database is reachable');
-    is($db->version, '15', 'correct PostgreSQL version');
-}
-
-# Mark expected failures
-TODO: {
-    local $TODO = 'Caching not yet implemented';
-    is($cache->get('key'), 'value', 'cache returns value');
-}
-
-done_testing;
-```
-
-## Test2::V0 Modern Framework
-
-Test2::V0 is the modern replacement for Test::More — richer assertions, better diagnostics, and extensible.
-
-### Why Test2?
-
-- Superior deep comparison with hash/array builders
-- Better diagnostic output on failures
-- Subtests with cleaner scoping
-- Extensible via Test2::Tools::* plugins
-- Backward-compatible with Test::More tests
-
-### Deep Comparison with Builders
-
-```perl
-use v5.36;
-use Test2::V0;
-
-# Hash builder — check partial structure
-is(
-    $user->to_hash,
-    hash {
-        field name  => 'Alice';
-        field email => match(qr/\@example\.com$/);
-        field age   => validator(sub { $_ >= 18 });
-        # Ignore other fields
-        etc();
-    },
-    'user has expected fields'
-);
-
-# Array builder
-is(
-    $result,
-    array {
-        item 'first';
-        item match(qr/^second/);
-        item DNE();  # Does Not Exist — verify no extra items
-    },
-    'result matches expected list'
-);
-
-# Bag — order-independent comparison
-is(
-    $tags,
-    bag {
-        item 'perl';
-        item 'testing';
-        item 'tdd';
-    },
-    'has all required tags regardless of order'
-);
-```
-
-### Subtests
-
-```perl
-use v5.36;
-use Test2::V0;
-
-subtest 'User creation' => sub {
-    my $user = User->new(name => 'Alice', email => 'alice@example.com');
-    ok($user, 'user object created');
-    is($user->name, 'Alice', 'name is set');
-    is($user->email, 'alice@example.com', 'email is set');
-};
-
-subtest 'User validation' => sub {
-    my $warnings = warns {
-        User->new(name => '', email => 'bad');
-    };
-    ok($warnings, 'warns on invalid data');
-};
-
-done_testing;
-```
-
-### Exception Testing with Test2
-
-```perl
-use v5.36;
-use Test2::V0;
-
-# Test that code dies
-like(
-    dies { divide(10, 0) },
-    qr/Division by zero/,
-    'dies on division by zero'
-);
-
-# Test that code lives
-ok(lives { divide(10, 2) }, 'division succeeds') or note($@);
-
-# Combined pattern
-subtest 'error handling' => sub {
-    ok(lives { parse_config('valid.json') }, 'valid config parses');
-    like(
-        dies { parse_config('missing.json') },
-        qr/Cannot open/,
-        'missing file dies with message'
-    );
-};
-
-done_testing;
-```

-
-## Fixtures and Setup/Teardown
-
-### Subtest Isolation
-
-```perl
-use v5.36;
-use Test2::V0;
-use File::Temp qw(tempdir);
-use Path::Tiny;
-
-subtest 'file processing' => sub {
-    # Setup
-    my $dir = tempdir(CLEANUP => 1);
-    my $file = path($dir, 'input.txt');
-    $file->spew_utf8("line1\nline2\nline3\n");
-
-    # Test
-    my $result = process_file("$file");
-    is($result->{line_count}, 3, 'counts lines');
-
-    # Teardown happens automatically (CLEANUP => 1)
-};
-```
-
-### Shared Test Helpers
-
-Place reusable helpers in `t/lib/TestHelper.pm` and load with `use lib 't/lib'`. Export factory functions like `create_test_db()`, `create_temp_dir()`, and `fixture_path()` via `Exporter`.
-
-## Mocking
-
-### Test::MockModule
-
-```perl
-use v5.36;
-use Test2::V0;
-use Test::MockModule;
-
-subtest 'mock external API' => sub {
-    my $mock = Test::MockModule->new('MyApp::API');
-
-    # Good: Mock returns controlled data
-    $mock->mock(fetch_user => sub ($self, $id) {
-        return { id => $id, name => 'Mock User', email => 'mock@test.com' };
-    });
-
-    my $api = MyApp::API->new;
-    my $user = $api->fetch_user(42);
-    is($user->{name}, 'Mock User', 'returns mocked user');
-
-    # Verify call count
-    my $call_count = 0;
-    $mock->mock(fetch_user => sub { $call_count++; return {} });
-    $api->fetch_user(1);
-    $api->fetch_user(2);
-    is($call_count, 2, 'fetch_user called twice');
-
-    # Mock is automatically restored when $mock goes out of scope
-};
-
-# Bad: Monkey-patching without restoration
-# *MyApp::API::fetch_user = sub { ... };  # NEVER — leaks across tests
-```
-
-For lightweight mock objects, use `Test::MockObject` to create injectable test doubles with `->mock()` and verify calls with `->called_ok()`.
-
-## Coverage with Devel::Cover
-
-### Running Coverage
-
-```bash
-# Basic coverage report
-cover -test
-
-# Or step by step
-perl -MDevel::Cover -Ilib t/unit/user.t
-cover
-
-# HTML report
-cover -report html
-open cover_db/coverage.html
-
-# Specific thresholds
-cover -test -report text | grep 'Total'
-
-# CI-friendly: fail under threshold
-cover -test && cover -report text -select '^lib/' \
-  | perl -ne 'if (/Total.*?(\d+\.\d+)/) { exit 1 if $1 < 80 }'
-```
-
-### Integration Testing
-
-Use in-memory SQLite for database tests, mock HTTP::Tiny for API tests.
-
-```perl
-use v5.36;
-use Test2::V0;
-use DBI;
-
-subtest 'database integration' => sub {
-    my $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:SQLite:dbname=:memory:', '', '', {
-        RaiseError => 1,
-    });
-    $dbh->do('CREATE TABLE users (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT)');
-
-    $dbh->prepare('INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES (?)')->execute('Alice');
-    my $row = $dbh->selectrow_hashref('SELECT * FROM users WHERE name = ?', undef, 'Alice');
-    is($row->{name}, 'Alice', 'inserted and retrieved user');
-};
-
-done_testing;
-```
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### DO
-
-- **Follow TDD**: Write tests before implementation (red-green-refactor)
-- **Use Test2::V0**: Modern assertions, better diagnostics
-- **Use subtests**: Group related assertions, isolate state
-- **Mock external dependencies**: Network, database, file system
-- **Use `prove -l`**: Always include lib/ in `@INC`
-- **Name tests clearly**: `'user login with invalid password fails'`
-- **Test edge cases**: Empty strings, undef, zero, boundary values
-- **Aim for 80%+ coverage**: Focus on business logic paths
-- **Keep tests fast**: Mock I/O, use in-memory databases
-
-### DON'T
-
-- **Don't test implementation**: Test behavior and output, not internals
-- **Don't share state between subtests**: Each subtest should be independent
-- **Don't skip `done_testing`**: Ensures all planned tests ran
-- **Don't over-mock**: Mock boundaries only, not the code under test
-- **Don't use `Test::More` for new projects**: Prefer Test2::V0
-- **Don't ignore test failures**: All tests must pass before merge
-- **Don't test CPAN modules**: Trust libraries to work correctly
-- **Don't write brittle tests**: Avoid over-specific string matching

-## Quick Reference
-
-| Task | Command / Pattern |
-|---|---|
-| Run all tests | `prove -lr t/` |
-| Run one test verbose | `prove -lv t/unit/user.t` |
-| Parallel test run | `prove -lr -j8 t/` |
-| Coverage report | `cover -test && cover -report html` |
-| Test equality | `is($got, $expected, 'label')` |
-| Deep comparison | `is($got, hash { field k => 'v'; etc() }, 'label')` |
-| Test exception | `like(dies { ... }, qr/msg/, 'label')` |
-| Test no exception | `ok(lives { ... }, 'label')` |
-| Mock a method | `Test::MockModule->new('Pkg')->mock(m => sub { ... })` |
-| Skip tests | `SKIP: { skip 'reason', $count unless $cond; ... }` |
-| TODO tests | `TODO: { local $TODO = 'reason'; ... }` |
-
-## Common Pitfalls
-
-### Forgetting `done_testing`
-
-```perl
-# Bad: Test file runs but doesn't verify all tests executed
-use Test2::V0;
-is(1, 1, 'works');
-# Missing done_testing — silent bugs if test code is skipped
-
-# Good: Always end with done_testing
-use Test2::V0;
-is(1, 1, 'works');
-done_testing;
-```
-
-### Missing `-l` Flag
-
-```bash
-# Bad: Modules in lib/ not found
-prove t/unit/user.t
-# Can't locate MyApp/User.pm in @INC
-
-# Good: Include lib/ in @INC
-prove -l t/unit/user.t
-```
-
-### Over-Mocking
-
-Mock the *dependency*, not the code under test. If your test only verifies that a mock returns what you told it to, it tests nothing.
-
-### Test Pollution
-
-Use `my` variables inside subtests — never `our` — to prevent state leaking between tests.
-
-**Remember**: Tests are your safety net. Keep them fast, focused, and independent. Use Test2::V0 for new projects, prove for running, and Devel::Cover for accountability.

+
+```perl

+
+# Bad: Monkey-patching without restoration

+```
+
+For lightweight mock objects, use `Test::MockObject` to create injectable test doubles with `->mock()` and verify calls with `->called_ok()`.

+cover -test -report text | grep 'Total'
+
+# CI-friendly: fail under threshold
+cover -test && cover -report text -select '^lib/' \
+  | perl -ne 'if (/Total.*?(\d+\.\d+)/) { exit 1 if $1 < 80 }'
+```
+
+### Integration Testing
+
+Use in-memory SQLite for database tests, mock HTTP::Tiny for API tests.
+
+```perl
+use v5.36;
+use Test2::V0;
+use DBI;
+
+subtest 'database integration' => sub {
+    my $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:SQLite:dbname=:memory:', '', '', {
+        RaiseError => 1,
+    });
+    $dbh->do('CREATE TABLE users (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT)');
+
+    $dbh->prepare('INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES (?)')->execute('Alice');
+    my $row = $dbh->selectrow_hashref('SELECT * FROM users WHERE name = ?', undef, 'Alice');
+    is($row->{name}, 'Alice', 'inserted and retrieved user');
+};
+
+done_testing;
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### DO
+
+- **Follow TDD**: Write tests before implementation (red-green-refactor)
+- **Use Test2::V0**: Modern assertions, better diagnostics
+- **Use subtests**: Group related assertions, isolate state
+- **Mock external dependencies**: Network, database, file system
+- **Use `prove -l`**: Always include lib/ in `@INC`
+- **Name tests clearly**: `'user login with invalid password fails'`
+- **Test edge cases**: Empty strings, undef, zero, boundary values
+- **Aim for 80%+ coverage**: Focus on business logic paths
+- **Keep tests fast**: Mock I/O, use in-memory databases
+
+### DON'T
+
+- **Don't test implementation**: Test behavior and output, not internals
+- **Don't share state between subtests**: Each subtest should be independent
+- **Don't skip `done_testing`**: Ensures all planned tests ran
+- **Don't over-mock**: Mock boundaries only, not the code under test
+- **Don't use `Test::More` for new projects**: Prefer Test2::V0
+- **Don't ignore test failures**: All tests must pass before merge
+- **Don't test CPAN modules**: Trust libraries to work correctly
+- **Don't write brittle tests**: Avoid over-specific string matching

+## Quick Reference
+
+| Task | Command / Pattern |
+|---|---|
+| Run all tests | `prove -lr t/` |
+| Run one test verbose | `prove -lv t/unit/user.t` |
+| Parallel test run | `prove -lr -j8 t/` |
+| Coverage report | `cover -test && cover -report html` |
+| Test equality | `is($got, $expected, 'label')` |
+| Deep comparison | `is($got, hash { field k => 'v'; etc() }, 'label')` |
+| Test exception | `like(dies { ... }, qr/msg/, 'label')` |
+| Test no exception | `ok(lives { ... }, 'label')` |
+| Mock a method | `Test::MockModule->new('Pkg')->mock(m => sub { ... })` |
+| Skip tests | `SKIP: { skip 'reason', $count unless $cond; ... }` |
+| TODO tests | `TODO: { local $TODO = 'reason'; ... }` |
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+### Forgetting `done_testing`
+
+```perl
+# Bad: Test file runs but doesn't verify all tests executed
+use Test2::V0;
+is(1, 1, 'works');
+# Missing done_testing — silent bugs if test code is skipped
+
+# Good: Always end with done_testing
+use Test2::V0;
+is(1, 1, 'works');
+done_testing;
+```
+
+### Missing `-l` Flag
+
+```bash
+# Bad: Modules in lib/ not found
+prove t/unit/user.t
+# Can't locate MyApp/User.pm in @INC
+
+# Good: Include lib/ in @INC
+prove -l t/unit/user.t
+```
+
+### Over-Mocking
+
+Mock the *dependency*, not the code under test. If your test only verifies that a mock returns what you told it to, it tests nothing.
+
+### Test Pollution
+
+Use `my` variables inside subtests — never `our` — to prevent state leaking between tests.
+
+**Remember**: Tests are your safety net. Keep them fast, focused, and independent. Use Test2::V0 for new projects, prove for running, and Devel::Cover for accountability.
