Description : Skip test in a declarative way, following the Lancaster Consensus
Test::Is is a simple way of following the specifications of the
environment variables available for Perl tests as defined as one of the
"Lancaster Consensus" at Perl QA Hackathon 2013. Those variables
(NONINTERACTIVE_TESTING, EXTENDED_TESTING) define which tests should be
skipped.
If the environment does not match what the author of the test expected, the
complete test is skipped (in the same way as use Test::More skip_all => ...).
As an author, you can also expect that you will automatically benefit of
later evolutions of this specification just by upgrading the module.
The package will be maintained under the umbrella of the Debian Perl Group.
The package is a dependency of libmediawiki-bot-perl (#786800)
