NAME
App::Prove::State - State storage for the "prove" command.
VERSION
Version 3.42
DESCRIPTION
The "prove" command supports a "--state" option that instructs it to
store persistent state across runs. This module implements that state
and the operations that may be performed on it.
SYNOPSIS
# Re-run failed tests
$ prove --state=failed,save -rbv

Class Methods

o "result_class" (optional)
The name of the "result_class". Defaults to
"App::Prove::State::Result".
"result_class"

This class should either subclass from "App::Prove::State::Result" or
provide an identical interface.
"extensions"
Get or set the list of extensions that files must have in order to be
considered tests. Defaults to ['.t'].
"results"
Get the results of the last test run. Returns a "result_class()"
