CPAN::Reporter Description

CPAN::Reporter is a Perl module to provides Test::Reporter support for CPAN.pm. CPAN::Reporter is a Perl module to provides Test::Reporter support for CPAN.pm.SYNOPSISFrom the CPAN shell: cpan> install CPAN::Reporter cpan> reload cpan cpan> o conf init test_reportCPAN::Reporter is an add-on for the CPAN.pm module that uses Test::Reporter to send the results of module tests to the CPAN Testers project. Support for CPAN::Reporter is available in CPAN.pm as of version 1.88.The goal of the CPAN Testers project (http://testers.cpan.org/) is to test as many CPAN packages as possible on as many platforms as possible. This provides valuable feedback to module authors and potential users to identify bugs or platform compatibility issues and improves the overall quality and value of CPAN.One way individuals can contribute is to send test results for each module that they test or install. Installing CPAN::Reporter gives the option of automatically generating and emailing test reports whenever tests are run via CPAN.pm.GETTING STARTEDThe first step in using CPAN::Reporter is to install it using whatever version of CPAN.pm is already installed. CPAN.pm will be upgraded as a dependency if necessary. cpan> install CPAN::ReporterIf CPAN.pm was upgraded, it needs to be reloaded. cpan> reload cpanIf upgrading from a very old version of CPAN.pm, users may be prompted to renew their configuration settings, including the 'test_report' option to enable CPAN::Reporter.If not prompted automatically, users should manually initialize CPAN::Reporter support. After enabling CPAN::Reporter, CPAN.pm will automatically continue with interactive configuration of CPAN::Reporter options. (Remember to commit the CPAN configuration changes.) cpan> o conf init test_report cpan> o conf commitOnce CPAN::Reporter is enabled and configured, test or install modules with CPAN.pm as usual.For example, to force CPAN to repeat tests for CPAN::Reporter to see how it works: cpan> force test CPAN::Reporter Requirements: · Perl
