Introduction

The package is currently offering the following snippets:

testclass
testmethod

testclass is a variation of the snippet from the builtin Perl package: package. It unfolds boilerplate code for a test class (Test::Class) holding the following body of code:

package Test::Class::ClassName;

use strict;
use warnings;
use base qw(Test::Class);
use Test::More;

#run prior and once per suite
sub startup : Test(startup) {
    # body...

    return 1;
}

#run after and once per suite
sub shutdown : Test(shutdown) {
    # body...

    return 1;
}

#run prior and once per test method
sub setup : Test(setup) {
    # body...

    return 1;
}

#run after and once per test method
sub teardown : Test(teardown) {
    # body...

    return 1;
}

1;

testmethod is a variation of the snippet from the builtin Perl package: sub. It unfolds a more specialized variation of a subroutine.

sub testmethod_name : Test(number_of_tests) {
    my ($self) = @_;
    # body...

    return return_value;
}

This package can with luck be used with the package for Perl's Test::Class for Sublime Text 2 and 3.
