This is great! I was just thinking about cpancover.com and that it would be nice to have something like this to compare different runs. > For a screenshot of the diff, see: > http://domm.plix.at/perl/2012_06_01_app_archive_devel_cover_1_001.html You mention here that to extend it further you should look into the database. Of course, you should have been doing that already :-) There is an API to get at the information, and I don't think it's too complicated. The docs are in Devel::Cover::DB and Devel::Cover::Report::Text is probably the best example to crib from. If you need anything that's not in the API then we'll extend it, but all the reports go through the API so I think it's fairly complete. > and for the initial announcement, see: > http://domm.plix.at/perl/2012_02_21_app_archivedevelcover.html You talk here about Devel::Cover's speed. That's something I'm hoping to get time to look at under this grant too. -- Paul Johnson - p...@pjcj.net http://www.pjcj.net
