=head1 FUNCTIONS

=over 4

=item test_check_desc([OPTS, ]CHECKS...)

Test check desc files (and the tags in them) for common errors.

OPTS is an optional HASHREF containing key/value pairs, which are
described below.

CHECKS is a list of paths in which to check desc files.  Any given
element in CHECKS can be either a file or a dir.  Files are assumed to
be check desc file.  Directories are searched and all I<.desc> files
in those dirs are processed.

As the number of tests depends on the number of tags in desc, it is
difficult to "plan ahead" when using this test.  It is therefore
recommended to not specify a plan and use done_testing().

This sub uses a Data file (see L</load_profile_for_test ([PROFNAME[, INC...]])>).

OPTS may contain the following key/value pairs:

=over 4

=item coll-dir

Path to the collection directory (defaults to:
/usr/share/lintian/collection).  This is mostly useful for testing
Lintian itself.

If set to C<undef>, the test of Needs-Info containing only existing
collections will be skipped.

=item filter

If defined, it is a filter function that examines $_ (or its first
argument) and returns a truth value if C<$_> should be considered or
false otherwise.  C<$_> will be the path to the current file (or dir)
in question; it may be relative or absolute.

NB: I<all> elements in CHECKS are subject to the filter.

CAVEAT: If the filter rejects a directory, none of the files in it will be
considered either.  Even if the filter accepts a file, that file will
only be processed if it has the proper extension (i.e. with I<.desc>).

=item translation

If defined and a truth value, the desc files are expected to contain
translations.  Otherwise, they must be regular checks.

=item test_load_profiles(ROOT, INC...)

Test that all profiles in I<ROOT/profiles> are loadable.  INC will be
the INC path used as include path for the profile.

If INC is omitted, then the include path will consist of (ROOT,
'/usr/share/lintian').  Otherwise, INC will be used as is (and should
include ROOT).

This sub will do one test per profile loaded.

=item test_load_checks([OPTS, ]DIR[, CHECKNAMES...])

Test that the Perl module implementation of the checks can be loaded
and has a run sub.

OPTS is an optional HASHREF containing key/value pairs, which are
described below.

DIR is the directory where the checks can be found.

CHECKNAMES is a list of check names.  If CHECKNAMES is given, only the
checks in this list will be processed.  Otherwise, all the checks in
DIR will be processed.

For planning purposes, every check processed counts for 2 tests and
the call itself does on additional check.  So if CHECKNAMES contains
10 elements, then 21 tests will be done (2 * 10 + 1).  Filtered out
checks will I<not> be counted.

All data files created at compile time or in the file scope will be
loaded immediately (instead of lazily as done during the regular
runs).  This is done to spot missing data files or typos in their
names.  Therefore, this sub will load a profile if one hasn't been
loaded already.  (see L</load_profile_for_test ([PROFNAME[,
INC...]])>)

OPTS may contain the following key/value pairs:

=over 4

=item filter

If defined, it is a filter function that examines $_ (or its first
argument) and returns a truth value if C<$_> should be considered or
false otherwise.  C<$_> will be the path to the current file (or dir)
in question; it may be relative or absolute.

NB: filter is I<not> used if CHECKNAMES is given.

CAVEAT: If the filter rejects a directory, none of the files in it will be
considered either.  Even if the filter accepts a file, that file will
only be processed if it has the proper extension (i.e. with I<.desc>).

=item test_tags_implemented ([OPTS, ]DIR[, CHECKNAMES...])

Test a given check implements all the tags listed in its desc file.
For planning purposes, each check counts as one test and the call
itself do one additional check.  So if 10 checks are tested, the plan
should account for 11 tests.

This is a simple scan of the source code looking asserting that the
tag names I<appear> (in the actual code part).  For a vast majority of
Lintian's tags it is reliable enough to be useful.  However it has
false-positives and false-negatives - the former can be handled via
"exclude-pattern" (see below).

The DIR argument is the directory in which to find the checks.

CHECKNAMES is a list of the check names.  If CHECKNAMES is given, only
the checks in this list will be processed.  Otherwise, all the checks
in DIR will be processed.

The optional parameter OPTS is a hashref.  If passed it must be the
first argument.  The following key/value pairs are defined:

=over 4

=item exclude-pattern

The value is assumed to be a regex (or a string describing a regex).
Any tag matching this regex will be excluded from this test and is
assumed to be implemented (regardless of whether that is true or not).

This is useful for avoiding false-positives with cases like:

  foreach my $x (@y) {
    tag "some-tag-for-$x", "blah blah $x"
        unless f($x);
  }

=item filter

If defined, it is a filter function that examines $_ (or its first
argument) and returns a truth value if C<$_> should be considered or
false otherwise.  C<$_> will be the path to the current file (or dir)
in question; it may be relative or absolute.

NB: filter is I<not> used if CHECKNAMES is given.

CAVEAT: If the filter rejects a directory, none of the files in it will be
considered either.  Even if the filter accepts a file, that file will
only be processed if it has the proper extension (i.e. with I<.desc>).

=back

As mentioned, this test assert that the tag name appears in the code.
Consider the following example:

 my $tagname = 'my-tag';
 $tagname = 'my-other-tag' if $condition;

In this example, this test would conclude that 'my-tag' and
'my-other-tag' are both implemented.  Which is good when $tagname is
eventually passed to L<tag|Lintian::Tags/tag>, and a false-negative
otherwise.

Comment lines are I<not> ignored, so comments can be used as an
alternative to the exclude-pattern (above).

=item load_profile_for_test ([PROFNAME[, INC...]])

Load a Lintian::Profile and ensure Data files can be used.  This is
needed if the test needs to access a data file or if a special profile
is needed for the test.  It does I<not> test the profile for issues.

PROFNAME is the name of the profile to load.  It can be omitted, in
which case the sub ensures that a profile has been loaded.  If no
profile has been loaded, 'debian/main' will be loaded.

INC is a list of extra "include dirs" (or Lintian "roots") to be used
for finding the profile.  If not specified, it defaults to
I<$ENV{'LINTIAN_TEST_ROOT'}> and I</usr/share/lintian> (in order).
INC is ignored if a profile has already been loaded.

CAVEAT: Only one profile can be loaded in a given test.  Once a
profile has been loaded, it is not possible to replace it with another
one.  So if this is invoked multiple times, PROFNAME must be omitted
or must match the name of the loaded profile.

=item program_name_to_perl_paths(PROGNAME)

Map the program name (e.g. C<$0>) to a list of directories or/and
files that should be processed.

This helper sub is mostly useful for splitting up slow tests run over
all Perl scripts/modules in Lintian.  This allows better use of
multiple cores.  Example:


  t/scripts/my-test/
   runner.pl
   checks.t -> runner.pl
   collection.t -> runner.pl
   ...

And then in runner.pl:

  use Test::Lintian;
  
  my @paths = program_name_to_perl_paths($0);
  # test all files/dirs listed in @paths

For a more concrete example, see t/scripts/01-critic/ and the
files/symlinks beneath it.
