- Add one BUILD_DEPENDS for make test
+BUILD_DEPENDS+= p5-Module-Build-[0-9]*:../../devel/p5-Module-Build
(upstream)
- Update 0.21 to 0.26
-------------------
0.26 2015-11-07
- The previous release only had a partial fix for failures to resolve distro
names. This release fixes this more completely.
0.25 2015-11-07
- This module would die when it couldn't turn a dependent module name into a
distro. Now it outputs a diag() message and continues on.
0.24 2015-10-04
- When test_all_dependents() is called, deps are now sorted before testing.
- The prereqs log now tells shows you the "root" distribution when installing
prereqs of prereqs. This makes it easier to figure out which dependent is
pulling in some uninstallable module.
0.23 2015-10-04
- Use diag to print the name of each distribution before it is tested. This is
helpful if a particular distro hangs during the build or test phases.
0.22 2015-08-21
- The test_all_dependents() sub now lets you pass a filter subroutine instead
of an exclude regex. This is a lot simpler to implement in many cases.
Issues found with existing distfiles:
distfiles/eclipse-sourceBuild-srcIncluded-3.0.1.zip
distfiles/fortran-utils-1.1.tar.gz
distfiles/ivykis-0.39.tar.gz

distfiles/pvs-3.2-libraries.tgz
distfiles/pvs-3.2-linux.tgz
distfiles/pvs-3.2-solaris.tgz
distfiles/pvs-3.2-system.tgz
No changes made to these distinfo files.
Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.

Set BUILD_DEPENDS+= for make test
WARNING: The tests this module does should never be included as part of a
normal CPAN install!
This module is intended as a tool for module authors who would like to
easily test that a module release will not break dependencies. This is
particularly useful for module authors (like myself) who have modules which
are a dependency of many other modules. How It Works
Internally, this module will download dependencies from CPAN and run their
tests. If those dependencies in turn have unsatisfied dependencies, they
are installed into a temporary directory. These second-level (and third-,
etc) dependencies are not tested.
In order to avoid prompting, this module sets $ENV{PERL_AUTOINSTALL} to
--defaultdeps and sets $ENV{PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT} to a true value.
Nonetheless, some ill-behaved modules will still wait for a
prompt. Unfortunately, because of the way this module attempts to keep
output to a minimum, you won't see these prompts. Patches are welcome.
Running Tests in Parallel
If you're testing a lot of modules, you might benefit from running tests in
parallel. You'll need to have Parallel::ForkManager installed for this to
work.
Set the $ENV{PERL_TEST_DM_PROCESSES} env var to a value greater than 1 to
enable parallel testing.
