Test2::Tools::Ref - Tools for validating references.
This module contains tools that allow you to verify that something is a ref. It
also has tools to check if two refs are the same exact ref, or different. None of
the functions in this module do deep comparisons.
use Test2::Tools::Ref;
# Ensure something is a ref.
ref_ok($ref);
# Check that $ref is a HASH reference
ref_ok($ref, 'HASH', 'Must be a hash')
ref_is($refa, $refb, "Same exact reference");
ref_is_not($refa, $refb, "Not the same exact reference");
All subs are exported by default.
