=head1 NAME

Bencher::Scenario::ExceptionHandling - Benchmark various ways to do exception handling in Perl

=head1 VERSION

This document describes version 0.001 of Bencher::Scenario::ExceptionHandling (from Perl distribution Bencher-Scenario-ExceptionHandling), released on 2024-02-23.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

To run benchmark with default option:

 % bencher -m ExceptionHandling

To run module startup overhead benchmark:

 % bencher --module-startup -m ExceptionHandling

For more options (dump scenario, list/include/exclude/add participants, list/include/exclude/add datasets, etc), see L<bencher> or run C<bencher --help>.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Keywords: try-catch, eval, die

TODO: benchmark other try-catch modules.

=head1 CONTRIBUTING


To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on
GitHub.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can
simply modify the code, then test via:

 % prove -l

If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your
system), you can install L<Dist::Zilla>,
L<Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR>,
L<Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR>, and sometimes one or two other
Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond
that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.

=head1 BUGS

Please report any bugs or feature requests on the bugtracker website L<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=Bencher-Scenario-ExceptionHandling>

When submitting a bug or request, please include a test-file or a
patch to an existing test-file that illustrates the bug or desired
feature.
