=head1 DESCRIPTION

In situations where you have deep trees of classes, there is a common
situation in which you test a module 4 or 5 subclasses down, which should
follow the correct behaviour of not just the subclass, but of all the
parent classes.

This should be done to ensure that the implementation of a subclass has
not somehow "broken" the object's behaviour in a more general sense.

C<Test::Object> is a testing package designed to allow you to easily test
what you believe is a valid object against the expected behaviour of B<all>
of the classes in its inheritance tree in one single call.

To do this, you "register" tests (in the form of CODE or function
references) with C<Test::Object>, with each test associated with a
particular class.

When you call C<object_ok> in your test script, C<Test::Object> will check
the object against all registered tests. For each class that your object
responds to C<$object-E<gt>isa($class)> for, the appropriate testing
function will be called.

Doing it this way allows adapter objects and other things that respond
to C<isa> differently that the default to still be tested against the
classes that it is advertising itself as correctly.

This also means that more than one test might be "counted" for each call
to C<object_ok>. You should account for this correctly in your expected
test count.
