Test::Time - Overrides the time() and sleep() core functions for testing

use Test::Time;

# Freeze time
my $now = time();

# Increment internal time (returns immediately)
sleep 1;

# Return internal time incremented by 1
my $then = time();

Test::Time can be used to test modules that deal with time. Once you use this module, all references to time, localtime and sleep will be internalized. You can set custom time by passing time => number after the use statement:

use Test::Time time => 1;

my $now = time;    # $now is equal to 1
sleep 300;         # returns immediately, displaying a note
my $then = time;   # $then equals to 301
