defmodule Multiverses do
  @moduledoc """
  Elixir introduces into the world of CS, the "multiverse testing" pattern.
  This is a pattern where tests are run concurrently and each test sees a
  shard of global state.

  ## Examples:

  - `Mox`: each tests has access to the global module mock, sharded by the
    pid of the running test.
  - `Ecto`: each test has access to a "database sandbox", which is a
    checked out transaction on the global database that acts as its own
    database shard.
  - `Hound`,`Wallaby`: each test generates an ID that is passed outside of
    the BEAM that is reintercepted on ingress to the BEAM; this ID is
    then used to reconnect to the parent test pid.

  This library implements Multiverses-aware versions of several constructs
  in the Elixir Standard Library which aren't natively Multiversable.
  Additional plugins will be provided for other systems, such as Phoenix.PubSub

  ## Usage

  In your module where you'll be using at least one multiverse module, use the
  following header:

  ```elixir
  use Multiverses, with: Registry
  ```

  this aliases `Multiverses.Registry` to `Registry` and activates the
  `Multiverses.Registry` macros across this module.  As an escape hatch, if you
  need to use the underlying module, you may use the macro alias `Elixir.Registry`

  If you need more complex choices for when to activate Multiverses (such as system
  environment variables), you should encode those choices directly using logic around
  the `use Multiverses` statement.

  ### Options

  - `:with` the names of multiverse modules you'd like to use.  May be a single module
    or a list of modules.  Is identical to `require Multiverses.<module>; alias Multiverses.<module>`.
  - `:otp_app` the otp_app must have its :use_multiverses application environment
    variable set in order to be used.
