  Description     : Perl module to test for warnings and the lack of them

If you've ever tried to use Test::NoWarnings to confirm there are no
warnings generated by your tests, combined with the convenience of
done_testing to not have to declare a test count, you'll have discovered
that these two features do not play well together, as the test count
will be calculated before the warnings test is run, resulting in a TAP
error.

Test::Warnings is intended to be used as a drop-in replacement for
Test::NoWarnings. It can also be used as a replacement for Test::Warn,
if you wish to test the content of expected warnings.
