NAME
       TAP::Parser::Result::Plan - Plan result token.

VERSION
       Version 3.48

DESCRIPTION
       This is a subclass of TAP::Parser::Result.  A token of this class will
       be returned if a plan line is encountered.

        1..1
        ok 1 - woo hooo!

       1..1 is the plan.  Gotta have a plan.

OVERRIDDEN METHODS
       Mainly listed here to shut up the pitiful screams of the pod coverage
       tests.  They keep me awake at night.

       •   "as_string"

       •   "raw"

   Instance Methods
       "plan"

         if ( $result->is_plan ) {
            print $result->plan;
         }

       This is merely a synonym for "as_string".

       "tests_planned"

         my $planned = $result->tests_planned;

       Returns  the number of tests planned.  For example, a plan of 1..17 will
       cause this method to return '17'.

       "directive"

        my $directive = $plan->directive;

       If a SKIP directive is included with the plan, this method  will  return
       it.

        1..0 # SKIP: why bother?

       "has_skip"

         if ( $result->has_skip ) { ... }

       Returns  a  boolean value indicating whether or not this test has a SKIP
       directive.

       "explanation"

        my $explanation = $plan->explanation;

       If a SKIP directive was included with the plan, this method will  return
       the explanation, if any.

       "todo_list"

         my $todo = $result->todo_list;
         for ( @$todo ) {
             ...
         }
