NAME
    File::HomeDir::Test - Prevent the accidental creation of user-owned files during testing

SYNOPSIS
      use Test::More test => 1;
      use File::HomeDir::Test;
      use File::HomeDir;

DESCRIPTION
    File::HomeDir::Test is a File::HomeDir driver intended for use in the test scripts of modules or
    applications that write files into user-owned directories.

    It is designed to prevent the pollution of user directories with files that are not part of the
    application install itself, but were created during testing. These files can leak state
    information from the tests into the run-time usage of an application, and on Unix systems also
    prevents tests (which may be executed as root via sudo) from writing files which cannot later be
    modified or removed by the regular user.

SUPPORT
    See the support section of the main File::HomeDir documentation.
