Hello, all,

I'm using Test::More and Moose.

My minimal Moose class looks a little like this:

package Foo;
use Moose;

has 'first_name' => ( is => 'rw', isa => 'Str', required => 1);
has 'last_name' => ( is => 'rw', isa => 'Str', required => 1);

no Moose;
1;

My new.t file has the following:

use Foo;
use Test::More tests => 2;

ok( my $foo = Foo->new(
        first_name => 'Joe',
        last_name  => 'Average',
    )
);

ok( my $incomplete = Foo->new(
        first_name => 'Joe',
    )
);

Now, I know the second test will fail; it's what I'm testing for. What I don't know is, how do I tell Test::More that failure is what I'm hoping for? I've tried wrapping it in an eval and testing $@, but it still reports as a failure.

Am I missing something glaringly obvious here?
