NAME

Test::Notice - Display noticable messages to users during tests

SYNOPSIS

    use Test::Notice;
    notice 'Install Foo::Bar::Baz for extra awesome features!';
    
    # Do not use colors
    notice 'Now without colors!', :!try-color;

DESCRIPTION

This module lets you display highly visible messages to users during the run of your test, pausing long enough for them to read it.

EXPORTED SUBROUTINES

`notice( Str $message, Bool :$try-color = True )`

    notice 'Install Foo::Bar::Baz for extra awesome features!';

Takes one mandatory argument: the string to display in the message. Does not return anything meaningful. The message will be coloured if optional Terminal::ANSIColor is installed. The output also pauses long enough for an average reader to read the entire message (regardless of its length), unless NONINTERACTIVE_TESTING environmental variable is set.

You can turn detection of the coloring module by setting :try-color to False.

LIMITATIONS

The current implementation always assumes the terminal width of 80 characters. If you can figure out how to get the actual width when test is run with prove, patches are more than welcome.

Currently, any amount of whitespace in the displayed message will be squashed into a single space.
