.SH "NAME"
Test2::Manual::Testing::Planning \- The many ways to set a plan.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This tutorial covers the many ways of setting a plan.
.SH "TEST COUNT"
.IX Header "TEST COUNT"
The \f(CW\*(C`plan()\*(C'\fR function is provided by Test2::Tools::Basic. This function lets
you specify an exact number of tests to run. This can be done at the start of
testing, or at the end. This cannot be done partway through testing.
.PP
.Vb 2
\&    use Test2::Tools::Basic;
\&    plan(10); # 10 tests expected
\&
\&    ...
.Ve
.SH "DONE TESTING"
.IX Header "DONE TESTING"
The \f(CW\*(C`done_testing()\*(C'\fR function is provided by Test2::Tools::Basic. This
function will automatically set the plan to the number of tests that were run.
This must be used at the very end of testing.
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    use Test2::Tools::Basic;
\&
\&    ...
\&
\&    done_testing();
.Ve
.SH "SKIP ALL"
.IX Header "SKIP ALL"
The \f(CW\*(C`skip_all()\*(C'\fR function is provided by Test2::Tools::Basic. This function
will set the plan to \f(CW0\fR, and exit the test immediately. You may provide a skip
reason that explains why the test should be skipped.
.PP
.Vb 2
\&    use Test2::Tools::Basic;
\&    skip_all("This test will not run here") if ...;
\&
\&    ...

.SH "CUSTOM PLAN EVENT"
.IX Header "CUSTOM PLAN EVENT"
A plan is simply an Test2::Event::Plan event that gets sent to the current
hub. You could always write your own tool to set the plan.
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    use Test2::API qw/context/;
\&
\&    sub set_plan {
\&        my $count = @_;
\&
\&        my $ctx = context();
\&        $ctx\->send_event(\*(AqPlan\*(Aq, max => $count);
\&        $ctx\->release;
\&
\&        return $count;
