+ use Test::Exception;
+
+ # or if you don't need Test::More
+
+ use Test::Exception tests => 5;
+
+ # then...

+
+ # Check an exception of the given class (or subclass) is thrown
+ throws_ok { $foo->method } 'Error::Simple', 'simple error thrown';
+
+ # all Test::Exceptions subroutines are guaranteed to preserve the state
+ # of $@ so you can do things like this after throws_ok and dies_ok
+ like $@, 'what the stringified exception should look like';
+
+ # Check that something died - we do not care why
+ dies_ok { $foo->method } 'expecting to die';
+
+ # Check that something did not die
+ lives_ok { $foo->method } 'expecting to live';

+ # Check that a test runs without an exception

+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This module provides a few convenience methods for testing exception based code. It is built with
+L<Test::Builder> and plays happily with L<Test::More> and friends.
+
+If you are not already familiar with L<Test::More> now would be the time to go take a look.
+
+You can specify the test plan when you C<use Test::Exception> in the same way as C<use Test::More>.
+See L<Test::More> for details.
+
+NOTE: Test::Exception only checks for exceptions. It will ignore other methods of stopping
+program execution - including exit(). If you have an exit() in evalled code Test::Exception
+will not catch this with any of its testing functions.

+=item B<throws_ok>
+
+Tests to see that a specific exception is thrown. throws_ok() has two forms:
+
+ throws_ok BLOCK REGEX, TEST_DESCRIPTION
+ throws_ok BLOCK CLASS, TEST_DESCRIPTION
+
+In the first form the test passes if the stringified exception matches the give regular expression. For example:
+
+ throws_ok { read_file( 'unreadable' ) } qr/No file/, 'no file';
+
+If your perl does not support C<qr//> you can also pass a regex-like string, for example:
+
+ throws_ok { read_file( 'unreadable' ) } '/No file/', 'no file';
+
+The second form of throws_ok() test passes if the exception is of the same class as the one supplied, or a subclass of that class. For example:
+
+ throws_ok { $foo->bar } "Error::Simple", 'simple error';
+
+Will only pass if the C<bar> method throws an Error::Simple exception, or a subclass of an Error::Simple exception.
+
+You can get the same effect by passing an instance of the exception you want to look for. The following is equivalent to the previous example:
+
+ my $SIMPLE = Error::Simple->new;
+ throws_ok { $foo->bar } $SIMPLE, 'simple error';
+
+Should a throws_ok() test fail it produces appropriate diagnostic messages. For example:
+
+ not ok 3 - simple error
+ # Failed test (test.t at line 48)
+ # expecting: Error::Simple exception
+ # found: normal exit
+
+Like all other Test::Exception functions you can avoid prototypes by passing a subroutine explicitly:
+
+ throws_ok( sub {$foo->bar}, "Error::Simple", 'simple error' );
+
+A true value is returned if the test succeeds, false otherwise. On exit $@ is guaranteed to be the cause of death (if any).
+
+A description of the exception being checked is used if no optional test description is passed.
+

+sub throws_ok (&$;$) {
+ my ( $coderef, $expecting, $description ) = @_;
+ unless (defined $expecting) {
+ require Carp;
+ Carp::croak( "throws_ok: must pass exception class/object or regex" );
+ }
+ $description = _exception_as_string( "threw", $expecting )
+ unless defined $description;
+ my $exception = _try_as_caller( $coderef );
+ my $regex = $Tester->maybe_regex( $expecting );
+ my $ok = $regex
+ ? ( $exception =~ m/$regex/ )
+ : eval {
+ $exception->isa( ref $expecting ? ref $expecting : $expecting )
+ };
+ $Tester->ok( $ok, $description );
+ unless ( $ok ) {
+ $Tester->diag( _exception_as_string( "expecting:", $expecting ) );
+ $Tester->diag( _exception_as_string( "found:", $exception ) );
+ };
+ $@ = $exception;
+ return $ok;
+};
+
+
+=item B<dies_ok>
+
+Checks that a piece of code dies, rather than returning normally. For example:
+
+ sub div {
+ my ( $a, $b ) = @_;
+ return $a / $b;
+ };
+
+ dies_ok { div( 1, 0 ) } 'divide by zero detected';
+
+ # or if you don't like prototypes
+ dies_ok( sub { div( 1, 0 ) }, 'divide by zero detected' );
+
+A true value is returned if the test succeeds, false otherwise. On exit $@ is guaranteed to be the cause of death (if any).
+
+Remember: This test will pass if the code dies for any reason. If you care about the reason it might be more sensible to write a more specific test using throws_ok().
+
+The test description is optional, but recommended.
+

+
+sub dies_ok (&;$) {
+ my ( $coderef, $description ) = @_;
+ my $exception = _try_as_caller( $coderef );
+ my $ok = $Tester->ok( _is_exception($exception), $description );
+ $@ = $exception;
+ return $ok;
+}
+
+
+=item B<lives_ok>
+
+Checks that a piece of code doesn't die. This allows your test script to continue, rather than aborting if you get an unexpected exception. For example:
+
+ sub read_file {
+ my $file = shift;
+ local $/;
+ open my $fh, '<', $file or die "open failed ($!)\n";
+ $file = <FILE>;
+ return $file;
+ };
+
+ my $file;
+ lives_ok { $file = read_file('test.txt') } 'file read';
+
+ # or if you don't like prototypes
+ lives_ok( sub { $file = read_file('test.txt') }, 'file read' );
+
+Should a lives_ok() test fail it produces appropriate diagnostic messages. For example:
+
+ not ok 1 - file read
+ # Failed test (test.t at line 15)
+ # died: open failed (No such file or directory)
+
+A true value is returned if the test succeeds, false otherwise. On exit $@ is guaranteed to be the cause of death (if any).
+
+The test description is optional, but recommended.
+
+=cut
+
+sub lives_ok (&;$) {
+ my ( $coderef, $description ) = @_;
+ my $exception = _try_as_caller( $coderef );
+ my $ok = $Tester->ok( ! _is_exception( $exception ), $description );
+ $Tester->diag( _exception_as_string( "died:", $exception ) ) unless $ok;
+ $@ = $exception;
+ return $ok;
+}
+
+
+=item B<lives_and>
+
+Run a test that may throw an exception. For example, instead of doing:
+
+ my $file;
+ lives_ok { $file = read_file('answer.txt') } 'read_file worked';
+ is $file, "42", 'answer was 42';
+
+You can use lives_and() like this:
+
+ lives_and { is read_file('answer.txt'), "42" } 'answer is 42';
+ # or if you don't like prototypes
+ lives_and(sub {is read_file('answer.txt'), "42"}, 'answer is 42');
+
+Which is the same as doing
+
+ is read_file('answer.txt'), "42\n", 'answer is 42';
+
+unless C<read_file('answer.txt')> dies, in which case you get the same kind of error as lives_ok()
+
+ not ok 1 - answer is 42
+ # Failed test (test.t at line 15)
+ # died: open failed (No such file or directory)
+
+A true value is returned if the test succeeds, false otherwise. On exit $@ is guaranteed to be the cause of death (if any).
+
+The test description is optional, but recommended.
+

+
+sub lives_and (&;$) {
+ my ( $test, $description ) = @_;

+ local $Test::Builder::Level = $Test::Builder::Level + 1;
+ my $ok = \&Test::Builder::ok;
+ no warnings;
+ local *Test::Builder::ok = sub {
+ $_[2] = $description unless defined $_[2];
+ $ok->(@_);
+ };
+ use warnings;
+ eval { $test->() } and return 1;
+ };
+ my $exception = $@;

+=head1 SKIPPING TEST::EXCEPTION TESTS
+
+Sometimes we want to use Test::Exception tests in a test suite, but don't want to force the user to have Test::Exception installed. One way to do this is to skip the tests if Test::Exception is absent. You can do this with code something like this:
+
+ use strict;
+ use warnings;
+ use Test::More;
+
+ BEGIN {
+ eval "use Test::Exception";
+ plan skip_all => "Test::Exception needed" if $@;
+ }
+
+ plan tests => 2;
+ # ... tests that need Test::Exception ...
+
+Note that we load Test::Exception in a C<BEGIN> block ensuring that the subroutine prototypes are in place before the rest of the test script is compiled.
+
+
+=head1 BUGS
+
+There are some edge cases in Perl's exception handling where Test::Exception will miss exceptions
+thrown in DESTROY blocks. See the RT bug L<http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=24678> for
+details, along with the t/edge-cases.t in the distribution test suite. These will be addressed in
+a future Test::Exception release.
+
+If you find any more bugs please let me know by e-mail, or report the problem with
+L<http://rt.cpan.org/>.
