However, we are not aware of anyone actually using this feature and hard-coding test numbers is discouraged because it's very easy to add a test and break the test number sequence. This makes test suites very fragile. Instead, the following should be used:</p> <pre><code class="plaintext">1..2 ok 1 - We have liftoff not ok 2 - Anti-gravity device activated # TODO</code></pre> </li> <li><p>'Missing' tests</p> <p>It rarely happens, but sometimes a harness might encounter 'missing tests:</p> <pre><code class="plaintext">ok 1 ok 2 ok 15 ok 16 ok 17</code></pre> <p><a href="/5.18.3/Test::Harness">Test::Harness</a> would report tests 3-14 as having failed.

The source gets bundled up in a <a href="/5.18.3/TAP::Parser::Source">TAP::Parser::Source</a> object which gathers some meta data about it. The parser then uses a <a href="/5.18.3/TAP::Parser::IteratorFactory">TAP::Parser::IteratorFactory</a> to determine which <a href="/5.18.3/TAP::Parser::SourceHandler">TAP::Parser::SourceHandler</a> to use to turn the raw source into a stream of TAP by way of <a href="#Iterators">"Iterators"</a>.</p> <p>If you simply want <code>TAP::Parser</code> to handle a new source of TAP you probably don't need to subclass <code>TAP::Parser</code> itself. Rather, you'll need to create a new <a href="/5.18.3/TAP::Parser::SourceHandler">TAP::Parser::SourceHandler</a> class, and just plug it into the parser using the <i>sources</i> param to <a href="#new">"new"</a>. Before you start writing one, read through <a href="/5.18.3/TAP::Parser::IteratorFactory">TAP::Parser::IteratorFactory</a> to get a feel for how the system works first.</p> <p>If you find you really need to use your own iterator factory you can still do so without sub-classing <code>TAP::Parser</code> by setting <a href="#iterator_factory_class">"iterator_factory_class"</a>.</p> <p>If you just need to customize the objects on creation, subclass <a href="/5.18.3/TAP::Parser">TAP::Parser</a> and override <a href="#make_iterator_factory">"make_iterator_factory"</a>.</p> <p>Note that <a href="#make_source">"make_source"</a> & <a href="#make_perl_source">"make_perl_source"</a> have been <i>DEPRECATED</i> and are now removed.</p> <h3 id="Iterators"><a class="permalink" href="#Iterators">#</a>Iterators</h3> <p>A TAP parser uses <i>iterators</i> to loop through the <i>stream</i> of TAP read in from the <i>source</i> it was given.
