# NAME

TAP::Harness::Env - Parsing harness related environmental variables where appropriate

# VERSION

Version 3.44

# SYNOPSIS

    my $harness = TAP::Harness::Env->create(\%extra_args)

# DESCRIPTION

This module implements the environmental variables that Test::Harness uses with TAP::Harness, and instantiates the appropriate class with the appropriate arguments.

# METHODS

- create( \%args )

  This function reads the environment and generates an appropriate argument hash from it. If given any arguments in `%extra_args`, these will override the environmental defaults. In accepts `harness_class` (which defaults to `TAP::Harness`), and any argument the harness class accepts.

# ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES

`HARNESS_PERL_SWITCHES`

  Setting this adds perl command line switches to each test file run.

  For example, `HARNESS_PERL_SWITCHES=-T` will turn on taint mode. `HARNESS_PERL_SWITCHES=-MDevel::Cover` will run `Devel::Cover` for each test.

`HARNESS_VERBOSE`

  If true, `TAP::Harness` will output the verbose results of running its tests.

`HARNESS_SUBCLASS`

  Specifies a TAP::Harness subclass to be used in place of TAP::Harness.

`HARNESS_OPTIONS`

  Provide additional options to the harness. Currently supported options are:

  `j<n>`

    Run <n> (default 9) parallel jobs.

  `c`

    Try to color output. See "new" in TAP::Formatter::Base.

  `a<file.tgz>`

    Will use TAP::Harness::Archive as the harness class, and save the TAP to `file.tgz`

  `fPackage-With-Dashes`

    Set the formatter_class of the harness being run. Since the `HARNESS_OPTIONS` is separated by `:`, we use `-` instead.

  Multiple options may be separated by colons:

      HARNESS_OPTIONS=j9:c make test

`HARNESS_TIMER`

  Setting this to true will make the harness display the number of milliseconds each test took. You can also use prove's `--timer` switch.

`HARNESS_COLOR`

  Attempt to produce color output.

`HARNESS_IGNORE_EXIT`

  If set to a true value instruct `TAP::Parser` to ignore exit and wait status from test scripts.
