SYNOPSIS

	   use Arch::Test::Framework;

	   my $fw = Arch::Test::Framework->new;

	   my $archive = $fw->make_archive;
	   my $version = $archive->make_version();

	   #
	   # do something with $tree
	   #

	   $tree->import('initial import');

DESCRIPTION

       Arch::Test::Framework is a framework to quickly generate testing data (archives, versions, trees, changesets, etc) for arch-perl unit
       tests.

METHODS

       new, arch_uid, home_dir, library_dir, archives_dir, trees_dir, make_archive, make_category, make_branch, make_version, make_tree.

       new [%args]
	   Create a new arch-perl test environment.

	   Valid keys for %args are home to specify an existing test environment to reuse, library to specify a different revision library path,
	   archives to specify a different archives directory, and trees to specify a differente project tree directory. The default values are
	   "$home/library", "$home/archives", and "$home/trees" respectively.

	   A different arch user id can be selected with the userid key, the default is "Arch Perl Test <arch-perl-test@example.com>".

       arch_uid
       home_dir
       library_dir
       archives_dir
       trees_dir
	   These methods return the environment parameters as initialized by new.

       make_archive [archive_name]
	   Create a new archive in the archives directory. If archive_name is not specified a unique name is generated. The archive name is
	   returned. Returns an Arch::Test::Archive reference for the archive.

       make_tree version [name]
	   Create and initialize ("tla init-tree") a new project tree for version. I name is not specified, a unique identifier will be generated.
	   Returns an Arch::Test::Tree reference for the project tree.
