NAME
       Test2::Env - Documentation for environment variables used or set by
       Test2.

DESCRIPTION
       This is a list of environment variables that are either set by, or read
       by Test2.

AUTHOR_TESTING
       This env var is read by Test2. When set Test2 will run tests that are
       normally skipped unless a module author is doing extra author-specific
       testing.

AUTOMATED_TESTING
       This env var is read by Test2. When set this indicates the tests are
       run by an automated system and no human interaction is possible.

       See Test2::Require::AuthorTesting.

EXTENDED_TESTING
       This env var is read by Test2. When set it indicates some extended
       testing that should normally be skipped will be run.

       See Test2::Require::ExtendedTesting.

HARNESS_ACTIVE
       This env var is read by Test2. It is usually set by "prove"
       (Test::Harness) or "yath" (App::Yath).

NONINTERACTIVE_TESTING
       This env var is read by Test2. When set this indicates the testing will
       not be interactive.

       See Test2::Require::NonInteractiveTesting.

RELEASE_TESTING
       This env var is read by Test2. When set this indicates that release
       testing is being done, which may run more tests than normal.

       See Test2::Require::ReleaseTesting.

T2_FORMATTER
       This can be used to set the formatter that Test2 will use. If set to a
       string without a '+' prefix, then 'Test2::Formatter::' will be added to
       the start of the module name. If '+' is present it will be stripped and
       no further modification will be made to the module name.

T2_IN_PRELOAD
       Test2 sets this when preload mode is active. This is mainly used by
       App::Yath and similar tools that preload Test2, then fork to run tests.

TABLE_TERM_SIZE
       This is used to set a terminal width for things like diagnostic message
       tables.

TEST2_ACTIVE
       Test2 sets this variable when tests are running.

TEST2_ENABLE_PLUGINS
       This can be used to force plugins to be loaded whent he Test2 API is
       loaded. It takes a list of one or more plugin names seperated by comma.
       If the module name does not have a '+' in front of it then the
       "Test2::Plugin::" namespace is assumed and added. If a '+' is present
       at the start of a module name it will be stripped and no further
       modification will be made.

       Examples:

           TEST2_ENABLE_PLUGINS=BailOnFail
           Test2_ENABLE_PLUGINS=SRand,+My::Plugin::Name

TEST_ACTIVE
       Set by Test2 when tests are running.

TS_MAX_DELTA
       Used to determine how many max lines of output will be provided when
       is() finds a deep data strucgture mismatch.
