Has the noise stopped? You could unset AUTHOR_TESTING in the environment and use something like this in a distroprefs file to only turn it on when running the tests for your own code: match: distribution: ^NHORNE/ test: env: AUTHOR_TESTING: 1 See https://metacpan.org/pod/CPAN#Configuration-for-individual-distributions-Distroprefs -- David Cantrell | http://www.cantrell.org.uk/david Repent through spending

I wonder if I can set AUTHOR_TESTING on my modules, but not on those it loads. Let me think about that one. Is this some sort of travis-like system that installs all prereqs first, then tests your modules? If so, you should not set AUTHOR_TESTING until after all prereqs have been satisfied.

Hi Nigel, I noticed that you've been setting AUTHOR_TESTING=1 in your automated testing system, e.g. in this report: http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/3cda2ae8-3bf6-11e3-b8f6-b09be320165c That's because it's actually testing my own modules. I wonder if I can set AUTHOR_TESTING on my modules, but not on those it loads. Let me think about that one. If you are to set this flag, you should also install any indicated 'develop' prerequisites, as otherwise the tests cannot be expected to pass, and the failing report is useless. e.g. in the report I reference above, all the tests fail because there is an additional module loaded when AUTHOR_TESTING=1, which is in develop prereqs but you have failed to install it. thanks, Karen Etheridge et...@cpan.org -Nigel
Re: cpantesters system setting AUTHOR_TESTING=1
Meanwhile it's probably less than ideal to generate FAILs that shouldn't. End users might see a smattering of FAILs as a sign that a module isn't ready for prime time.
