NAME CPAN::WWW::Testers - The pre-2009 CPAN Testers website codebase. DESCRIPTION This distribution used to generate the CPAN Testers Reports website before 2009. CPAN TESTERS The CPAN Testers project was conceived back in May 1998 by Graham Barr and Chris Nandor as a way to provide multi-platform testing for modules uploaded to CPAN. Today there are over 20 million test reports and more than 100 testers regularly submitting reports each month, giving valuable feedback for users and authors alike. The objective of the group is to test as many of the distributions available on CPAN as possible, on as many platforms as possible, with a variety of perl interpreters. The ultimate goal is to improve the portability of the distributions on CPAN, and provide good feedback to the authors. This distribution used to create CPAN Testers website up until 2009. Leon Brocard was the original author and maintainer of this distribution, which Barbie took over in 2008. Following the complete redesign of the website, and associated sites, this distribution and the tools used were no longer required. For the current set of releases for the CPAN Testers family of websites, please see: * CPAN-Testers-WWW-Reports * CPAN-Testers-WWW-Statistics * CPAN-Testers-WWW-Wiki * CPAN-Testers-WWW-Blog ADVANCED WARNING - ADVANCED WARNING - ADVANCED WARNING - ADVANCED WARNING This distribution will soon be deleted from CPAN.

The ultimate goal is to improve the portability of the distributions on CPAN, and provide good feedback to the authors. Whether you have a common platform or a very unusual one, you can help by testing modules you install and submitting reports. There are plenty of module authors who could use test reports and helpful feedback on their modules and distributions. If you'd like to get involved, please take a look at the CPAN Testers Wiki, where you can learn how to install and configure one of the recommended smoke tools.
