Hi,
You wrote on 2002-04-30 to apache-modperl about Apache::DBI not being testable
while not under mod_perl. You said this:
That's normal. You cannot test modules that use mod_perl API without
running them inside mod_perl server. I've the same problem as you've
reported. This test suite is simple broken.
...
All Apache:: module authors should be moving to use the new Apache::Test
framework soon, since it lets you test the code under running mod_perl
server and works with both versions of httpd/mod_perl.
This is exactly my situation. I develop a module which requires Apache::DBI,
so I include it in my Makefile.PL like this:
WriteMakefile(
'PREREQ_PM'= {
'Apache::DBI' = 0,
},
);
But that prints a warning because Apache::DBI can't find Apache::module(),
which is only available under mod_perl.
My question:
1) Can you tell me (or guide me toward some information) how I can properly
add Apache::DBI as a prerequisite so that it doesn't print a warning (which
is the subjet of 90% of user emails)?
2) How can I test my module running Apache::DBI with Apache::Test?
Thanks a lot

I'll answer these in reverse:
2) See http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/devel/testing/testing.html
Though you can really rely on it once Apache::Test is released, which
will happen when mod_perl 2.0 is released.
1) That's an interesting problem. It seems that nobody has asked this

Makefile.PL

use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
# set prerequisites
my %prereq = (
Foo = 1.56,
);
# Manually test whether Apache::DBI is installed and add it to the
# PREREQ_PM if it's not installed, so CPAN.pm will automatically fetch
# it. If Apache::DBI is already installed it will fail to get loaded by

eval { require Apache::DBI };

$prereq{Apache::DBI} = '';

WriteMakefile(
