78             A context appears to have been destroyed without first calling release().
79             Based on \$@ it does not look like an exception was thrown (this is not always
80             a reliable test)
81              
82             This is a problem because the global error variables (\$!, \$@, and \$?) will
83             not be restored. In addition some release callbacks will not work properly from
84             inside a DESTROY method.
85              
86             Here are the context creation details, just in case a tool forgot to call
87             release():

89             Line: $frame->[2]
90             Tool: $frame->[3]

92             Here is a trace to the code that caused the context to be destroyed, this could
93             be an exit(), a goto, or simply the end of a scope:

493             =head1 NAME
494              
495             Test2::API::Context - Object to represent a testing context.
496              
497             =head1 DESCRIPTION
498              
499             The context object is the primary interface for authors of testing tools
500             written with L<Test2>. The context object represents the context in
501             which a test takes place (File and Line Number), and provides a quick way to
502             generate events from that context. The context object also takes care of
503             sending events to the correct L<Test2::Hub> instance.
504              
505             =head1 SYNOPSIS
506              
507             In general you will not be creating contexts directly. To obtain a context you
508             should always use C<context()> which is exported by the L<Test2::API> module.
509              
510             use Test2::API qw/context/;
511              
512             sub my_ok {
513             my ($bool, $name) = @_;
514             my $ctx = context();
515              
516             if ($bool) {
517             $ctx->pass($name);
518             }
519             else {
520             $ctx->fail($name);
521             }
522              
523             $ctx->release; # You MUST do this!
524             return $bool;
525             }
526              
527             Context objects make it easy to wrap other tools that also use context. Once
528             you grab a context, any tool you call before releasing your context will
529             inherit it:
530              
531             sub wrapper {
532             my ($bool, $name) = @_;
533             my $ctx = context();
534             $ctx->diag("wrapping my_ok");
535              
536             my $out = my_ok($bool, $name);
537             $ctx->release; # You MUST do this!
538             return $out;
539             }
540              
541             =head1 CRITICAL DETAILS
542              
543             =over 4
544              
545             =item you MUST always use the context() sub from Test2::API
546              
547             Creating your own context via C<< Test2::API::Context->new() >> will almost never
548             produce a desirable result. Use C<context()> which is exported by L<Test2::API>.
549              
550             There are a handful of cases where a tool author may want to create a new
551             context by hand, which is why the C<new> method exists. Unless you really know
552             what you are doing you should avoid this.
553              
554             =item You MUST always release the context when done with it
555              
556             Releasing the context tells the system you are done with it. This gives it a
557             chance to run any necessary callbacks or cleanup tasks. If you forget to
558             release the context it will try to detect the problem and warn you about it.
559              
560             =item You MUST NOT pass context objects around
561              
562             When you obtain a context object it is made specifically for your tool and any
563             tools nested within. If you pass a context around you run the risk of polluting
564             other tools with incorrect context information.
565              
566             If you are certain that you want a different tool to use the same context you
567             may pass it a snapshot. C<< $ctx->snapshot >> will give you a shallow clone of
568             the context that is safe to pass around or store.
569              
570             =item You MUST NOT store or cache a context for later
571              
572             As long as a context exists for a given hub, all tools that try to get a
573             context will get the existing instance. If you try to store the context you
574             will pollute other tools with incorrect context information.
575              
576             If you are certain that you want to save the context for later, you can use a
577             snapshot. C<< $ctx->snapshot >> will give you a shallow clone of the context
578             that is safe to pass around or store.
579              
580             C<context()> has some mechanisms to protect you if you do cause a context to
581             persist beyond the scope in which it was obtained. In practice you should not
582             rely on these protections, and they are fairly noisy with warnings.
583              
584             =item You SHOULD obtain your context as soon as possible in a given tool
585              
586             You never know what tools you call from within your own tool will need a
587             context. Obtaining the context early ensures that nested tools can find the
588             context you want them to find.

594             =over 4
595              
596             =item $ctx->done_testing;
597              
598             Note that testing is finished. If no plan has been set this will generate a
599             Plan event.
600              
601             =item $clone = $ctx->snapshot()
602              
603             This will return a shallow clone of the context. The shallow clone is safe to
604             store for later.
605              
606             =item $ctx->release()
607              
608             This will release the context. This runs cleanup tasks, and several important
609             hooks. It will also restore C<$!>, C<$?>, and C<$@> to what they were when the
610             context was created.
611              
612             B<Note:> If a context is acquired more than once an internal refcount is kept.
613             C<release()> decrements the ref count, none of the other actions of
614             C<release()> will occur unless the refcount hits 0. This means only the last
615             call to C<release()> will reset C<$?>, C<$!>, C<$@>,and run the cleanup tasks.
616              
617             =item $ctx->throw($message)
618              
619             This will throw an exception reporting to the file and line number of the
620             context. This will also release the context for you.
621              
622             =item $ctx->alert($message)
623              
624             This will issue a warning from the file and line number of the context.
625              
626             =item $stack = $ctx->stack()
627              
628             This will return the L<Test2::API::Stack> instance the context used to find
629             the current hub.
630              
631             =item $hub = $ctx->hub()
632              
633             This will return the L<Test2::Hub> instance the context recognizes as the
634             current one to which all events should be sent.
635              
636             =item $dbg = $ctx->trace()
637              
638             This will return the L<Test2::EventFacet::Trace> instance used by the context.
639              
640             =item $ctx->do_in_context(\&code, @args);
641              
642             Sometimes you have a context that is not current, and you want things to use it
643             as the current one. In these cases you can call
644             C<< $ctx->do_in_context(sub { ... }) >>. The codeblock will be run, and
645             anything inside of it that looks for a context will find the one on which the
646             method was called.
647              
648             This B<DOES NOT> affect context on other hubs, only the hub used by the context
649             will be affected.
650              
651             my $ctx = ...;
652             $ctx->do_in_context(sub {
653             my $ctx = context(); # returns the $ctx the sub is called on
654             });
655              
656             B<Note:> The context will actually be cloned, the clone will be used instead of
657             the original. This allows the thread id, process id, and error variables to be correct without
658             modifying the original context.
659              
660             =item $ctx->restore_error_vars()
661              
662             This will set C<$!>, C<$?>, and C<$@> to what they were when the context was
663             created. There is no localization or anything done here, calling this method
664             will actually set these vars.
665              
666             =item $! = $ctx->errno()
667              
668             The (numeric) value of C<$!> when the context was created.
669              
670             =item $? = $ctx->child_error()
671              
672             The value of C<$?> when the context was created.
673              
674             =item $@ = $ctx->eval_error()
675              
676             The value of C<$@> when the context was created.

682             B<Which one do I use?>
683              
684             The C<pass*> and C<fail*> are optimal if they meet your situation, using one of
685             them will always be the most optimal. That said they are optimal by eliminating
686             many features.
687              
688             Method such as C<ok>, and C<note> are shortcuts for generating common 1-task
689             events based on the old API, however they are forward compatible, and easy to
690             use. If these meet your needs then go ahead and use them, but please check back
691             often for alternatives that may be added.
692              
693             If you want to generate new style events, events that do many things at once,
694             then you want the C<*ev2*> methods. These let you directly specify which facets
695             you wish to use.
696              
697             =over 4
698              
699             =item $event = $ctx->pass()
700              
701             =item $event = $ctx->pass($name)
702              
703             This will send and return an L<Test2::Event::Pass> event. You may optionally
704             provide a C<$name> for the assertion.
705              
706             The L<Test2::Event::Pass> is a specially crafted and optimized event, using
707             this will help the performance of passing tests.
708              
709             =item $true = $ctx->pass_and_release()
710              
711             =item $true = $ctx->pass_and_release($name)
712              
713             This is a combination of C<pass()> and C<release()>. You can use this if you do
714             not plan to do anything with the context after sending the event. This helps
715             write more clear and compact code.

741              
742             =item my $event = $ctx->fail($name, @diagnostics)
743              
744             This lets you send an L<Test2::Event::Fail> event. You may optionally provide a
745             C<$name> and C<@diagnostics> messages.
746              
747             Diagnostics messages can be simple strings, data structures, or instances of
748             L<Test2::EventFacet::Info::Table> (which are converted inline into the
749             L<Test2::EventFacet::Info> structure).

755             =item my $false = $ctx->fail_and_release($name, @diagnostics)
756              
757             This is a combination of C<fail()> and C<release()>. This can be used to write
758             clearer and shorter code.
759              
760             sub shorthand {
761             my ($bool, $name) = @_;
762             my $ctx = context();

783              
784             =item $event = $ctx->ok($bool, $name, \@on_fail)
785              
786             B<NOTE:> Use of this method is discouraged in favor of C<pass()> and C<fail()>
787             which produce L<Test2::Event::Pass> and L<Test2::Event::Fail> events. These
788             newer event types are faster and less crufty.
789              
790             This will create an L<Test2::Event::Ok> object for you. If C<$bool> is false
791             then an L<Test2::Event::Diag> event will be sent as well with details about the
792             failure. If you do not want automatic diagnostics you should use the
793             C<send_event()> method directly.
794              
795             The third argument C<\@on_fail>) is an optional set of diagnostics to be sent in
796             the event of a test failure. Unlike with C<fail()> these diagnostics must be
797             plain strings, data structures are not supported.
798              
799             =item $event = $ctx->note($message)
800              
801             Send an L<Test2::Event::Note>. This event prints a message to STDOUT.
802              
803             =item $event = $ctx->diag($message)
804              
805             Send an L<Test2::Event::Diag>. This event prints a message to STDERR.
806              
807             =item $event = $ctx->plan($max)
808              
809             =item $event = $ctx->plan(0, 'SKIP', $reason)
810              
811             This can be used to send an L<Test2::Event::Plan> event. This event
812             usually takes either a number of tests you expect to run. Optionally you can
813             set the expected count to 0 and give the 'SKIP' directive with a reason to
814             cause all tests to be skipped.
815              
816             =item $event = $ctx->skip($name, $reason);
817              
818             Send an L<Test2::Event::Skip> event.
819              
820             =item $event = $ctx->bail($reason)
821              
822             This sends an L<Test2::Event::Bail> event. This event will completely
823             terminate all testing.
824              
825             =item $event = $ctx->send_ev2(%facets)
826              
827             This lets you build and send a V2 event directly from facets. The event is
828             returned after it is sent.
829              
830             This example sends a single assertion, a note (comment for stdout in
831             Test::Builder talk) and sets the plan to 1.
832              
833             my $event = $ctx->send_event(
834             plan => {count => 1},
835             assert => {pass => 1, details => "A passing assert"},
836             info => [{tag => 'NOTE', details => "This is a note"}],
837             );
838              
839             =item $event = $ctx->build_e2(%facets)
840              
841             This is the same as C<send_ev2()>, except it builds and returns the event
842             without sending it.
843              
844             =item $event = $ctx->send_ev2_and_release($Type, %parameters)
845              
846             This is a combination of C<send_ev2()> and C<release()>.
847              
848             sub shorthand {
849             my $ctx = context();
850             return $ctx->send_ev2_and_release(assert => {pass => 1, details => 'foo'});

861              
862             B<It is better to use send_ev2() in new code.>
863              
864             This lets you build and send an event of any type. The C<$Type> argument should
865             be the event package name with C<Test2::Event::> left off, or a fully
866             qualified package name prefixed with a '+'. The event is returned after it is
867             sent.
868              
869             my $event = $ctx->send_event('Ok', ...);
870

902             =head1 HOOKS
903              
904             There are 2 types of hooks, init hooks, and release hooks. As the names
905             suggest, these hooks are triggered when contexts are created or released.
906              
907             =head2 INIT HOOKS
908              
909             These are called whenever a context is initialized. That means when a new
910             instance is created. These hooks are B<NOT> called every time something
911             requests a context, just when a new one is created.
912              
913             =head3 GLOBAL
914              
915             This is how you add a global init callback. Global callbacks happen for every
916             context for any hub or stack.
917              
918             Test2::API::test2_add_callback_context_init(sub {
919             my $ctx = shift;
920             ...
921             });
922              
923             =head3 PER HUB
924              
925             This is how you add an init callback for all contexts created for a given hub.
926             These callbacks will not run for other hubs.
927              
928             $hub->add_context_init(sub {
929             my $ctx = shift;
930             ...
931             });
932              
933             =head3 PER CONTEXT
934              
935             This is how you specify an init hook that will only run if your call to
936             C<context()> generates a new context. The callback will be ignored if
937             C<context()> is returning an existing context.
938              
939             my $ctx = context(on_init => sub {
940             my $ctx = shift;
941             ...
942             });
943              
944             =head2 RELEASE HOOKS
945              
946             These are called whenever a context is released. That means when the last
947             reference to the instance is about to be destroyed. These hooks are B<NOT>
948             called every time C<< $ctx->release >> is called.
949              
950             =head3 GLOBAL
951              
952             This is how you add a global release callback. Global callbacks happen for every
953             context for any hub or stack.
954              
955             Test2::API::test2_add_callback_context_release(sub {
956             my $ctx = shift;
957             ...
958             });
959              
960             =head3 PER HUB
961              
962             This is how you add a release callback for all contexts created for a given
963             hub. These callbacks will not run for other hubs.
964              
965             $hub->add_context_release(sub {
966             my $ctx = shift;
967             ...
968             });
969              
970             =head3 PER CONTEXT
971              
972             This is how you add release callbacks directly to a context. The callback will
973             B<ALWAYS> be added to the context that gets returned, it does not matter if a
974             new one is generated, or if an existing one is returned.
975              
976             my $ctx = context(on_release => sub {
977             my $ctx = shift;
978             ...
979             });
980              
981             =head1 THIRD PARTY META-DATA
982              
983             This object consumes L<Test2::Util::ExternalMeta> which provides a consistent
984             way for you to attach meta-data to instances of this class. This is useful for
985             tools, plugins, and other extensions.
