The grade was PASSE<sol>FAILE<sol>UNKNOWNE<sol>NA! - -If you received a report, it's because the person using CPAN::Reporter -chose to copy you on the report in addition to sending it to CPAN Testers. -CPAN::Reporter suggests that only FAIL and UNKNOWN reports be copied to -authors, but individual users may override that default. - -=head2 Why was a report sent if a prerequisite is missing? - -As of CPAN::Reporter 0.46, FAIL and UNKNOWN reports with unsatisfied -prerequisites are discarded. Earlier versions may have sent these reports -out by mistake as either an NA or UNKNOWN report. - -PASS reports are not discarded because it may be useful to know when tests -passed despite a missing prerequisite. NA reports are sent because information -about the lack of support for a platform is relevant regardless of -prerequisites. - -=head1 SENDING REPORTS - -=head2 Why did I get an error sending a test report? - -Test reports are sent via ordinary email. The most common reason for errors -sending a report is that many Internet Service Providers (ISP's) will block -outbound SMTP (email) connections as part of their efforts to fight spam. -Instead, email must be routed to the ISP's outbound mail servers, which will -relay the email to the intended destination. - -You can configure CPAN::Reporter to use a specific outbound email server -with the C<<< smtp_server >>> configuration option. - - smtp_server = mail.some-isp.com - -In at least one case, an ISP has blocked outbound email unless the -"from" address was the assigned email address from that ISP. - -=head2 Why didn't my test report show up on CPAN Testers? - -CPAN Testers uses a mailing list to collect test reports. If the email -address you set in C<<< email_from >>> is subscribed to the list, your emails -will be automatically processed. Otherwise, test reports will be held -until manually reviewed and approved. - -Subscribing an account to the cpan-testers list is as easy as sending a blank -email to cpan-testers-subscribe@perl.org and replying to the confirmation -email. - -There is a delay between the time emails appear on the mailing list and the -time they appear on the CPAN Testers website. There is a further delay before -summary statistics appear on search.cpan.org. - -If your email address is subscribed to the list but your test reports are still -not showing up, your outbound email may have been silently blocked by your -ISP. See the question above about errors sending reports. - -=head2 Why don't you support sending reports via HTTP or authenticated SMTP? - -CPAN::Reporter uses L<Test::Reporter> as its conduit to CPAN Testers. -As soon as Test::Reporter provides support for alternative transport -methods, support for them will be added to CPAN::Reporter. - -=head1 CPAN TESTERS - -=head2 Where can I find out more about CPAN Testers? - -A good place to start is the CPAN Testers Wiki: -L<http://cpantest.grango.org/> - -=head2 Where can I find statistics about reports sent to CPAN Testers? - -CPAN Testers statistics are compiled at L<http://perl.grango.org/> - -=head2 How do I make sure I get credit for my test reports? - -To get credit in the statistics, use the same email address wherever -you run tests. - -For example, if you are a CPAN author, use your PAUSEID email address. - - email_from = pauseid@cpan.org - -Otherwise, you should use a consistent "Full Name" as part of your -email address in the C<<< email_from >>> option. - - email_from = "John Doe" <john.doe@example.com> - -=head1 SEE ALSO - -=over - -=item * - -L<CPAN::Testers> - -=item * - -L<CPAN::Reporter> - -=item * - -L<Test::Reporter> - -=back - -=head1 AUTHOR - -David A.
