| PackageDescription | module to report on prerequisite versions during automated testing
The Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Test::ReportPrereqs plugin adds a
t/00-report-prereqs.t test file. It reports the version of all modules listed
in the distribution metadata prerequisites (including 'recommends',
'suggests', etc.). However, any 'develop' prereqs are not reported (unless
they show up in another category).
.
If a MYMETA.json file exists and CPAN::Meta is installed on the testing
machine, MYMETA.json will be examined for prerequisites in addition, as it
would include any dynamic prerequisites not set in the distribution metadata.
.
Versions are reported based on the result of parse_version from
ExtUtils::MakeMaker, which means prerequisite modules are not actually loaded
(which avoids various edge cases with certain modules). Parse errors are
reported as "undef". If a module is not installed, "missing" is reported
instead of a version string. |
