.SH "NAME"
Module::Install::AuthorTests \- designate tests only run by module authors
.SH "VERSION"
.IX Header "VERSION"

.SH "COMMANDS"
.IX Header "COMMANDS"
This plugin adds the following Module::Install commands:
.SS "author_tests"
.IX Subsection "author_tests"
.Vb 1
\&  author_tests(\*(Aqxt\*(Aq);
.Ve
.PP
This declares that the test files found in the directory \fI./xt\fR should be run
only if the module is being built by an author.  For an explanation, see below.
.PP
You may declare multiple test directories by passing a list of tests.  Since
tests are not recursive by default, it should be safe to use a subdirectory of
\&\fI./t\fR for author tests, like:
.PP
.Vb 1
\&  author_tests(\*(Aqt/author\*(Aq);
.Ve
.SS "recursive_author_tests"
.IX Subsection "recursive_author_tests"
.Vb 1
\&  recursive_author_tests(\*(Aqxt\*(Aq);
.Ve
.PP
This acts like \f(CW\*(C`author_tests\*(C'\fR, but will look for tests in directories below
\&\fI./xt\fR as well as in the directory itself.
.SH "HOW IT WORKS"
.IX Header "HOW IT WORKS"
\&\*(L"Is this being run by an author?\*(R" is determined internally by Module::Install,
but at the time of the writing of this version it's determined by the existence
of a directory called \fI.author\fR in \fI./inc\fR.  (On \s-1VMS,\s0 it's \fI_author\fR.)  This
directory is created when Module::Install's \fIMakefile.PL\fR is run in a
directory where no \fI./inc\fR directory exists.
.SH "BUGS"
.IX Header "BUGS"
Please report any bugs or feature requests through the web interface at
<http://rt.cpan.org>. I will be notified, and then you'll automatically be
notified of progress on your bug as I make changes.
