And that is the way to test it.
but then I cant work out how to get the message. I've been looking at
Zoffix's Test::Output, but not
Incomplete sentence there. I guess it doesn't work for you? Tell
us how you tried to use it, what you were expecting, and what happened
instead.
My bad. I was distracted half-way through.
The Test::Trap seems to be what I am looking for.
I guess I should look into porting Test::Trap to Perl6 ... in Perl5,
I'd just write the test like so:
trap { some_code() };
$trap->stderr_like(qr/some pattern/, 'stderr from some_code matches
some pattern');
$trap->did_exit('some_code exited');
# or if you care about the exact exit code:
$trap->exit_is(1, 'exit code 1 from some_code');
... or thereabouts. I'm stuck on my phone and no perl at the
moment ...
