Hi Zhenyi, Other will probably have better answers, but I think the cpXXXan service can do something similar. http://cpxxxan.barnyard.co.uk/ I've recently written about it: http://perlmaven.com/cpan-for-older-versions-of-perl

This includes building/testing the dist for a matrix of OS x perl ver. I wonder if I can get the info from CPANTESTERS about if a dist can pass on specific OS/perl or not, so that I see if my building could have problem or not (esp. when I got failure on some OS/perl. ) It would be good if I can do that automatically. And I would need something like the Preferences filter on CPANTESTERS webpage, plus some summary feature of passing ratio for a OS/perl. > > I know that on CPANTESTERS for each dist we can get a json/rss/yaml file. But is there an existing module to parse the json/rss/yaml and provide a query interface? Or does the CPANTESTERS website has some API for this? > > Thanks! > > Regards, > Zhenyi
