Without getting into a bikeshed discussion, I'm looking for prior art to test a tarball against a list of local perls before I write my own thing. This sounds like a fun and mostly easy project, but I don't want to reinvent the wheel.
I want to take a distro tarball and test it against every perl I have installed. This is development testing, not end user / installation testing: % test_with_every_perl foo-1.1.tgz Testing with perl5.6.2..... Testing with perl5.8.0..... .... Testing with perl5.9.5..... At the end I get a nice report saying what went wrong with each version. This is something that I want to run right in my sandbox. The process is really easy: unpack the distro, use the appropriate perl with Makefile.Pl, and capture the results to make the report. So, who's already done this? :) -- brian d foy, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subscribe to The Perl Review: http://www.theperlreview.com
