CPAN tests fail Makefile.PL using Apache::TestMM
How am I supposed to tell CPAN that the distribution
requires Apache::TestMM when Makefile.PL uses it before
`make` is even executed? So I can't use
ExtUtils::MakeMaker's PREREQ_FATAL flag because Makefile.PL
does not get that far.
http://search.cpan.org/src/MARKLE/Apache2-Controller-0.0002/Makefile.PL
Ugh, do I have to build in a second layer of tests myself?
I guess a regular test script could generate the
Apache::Test TEST script and run the sub-suite with
Test::Harness...
I've been getting cpan-testers results like this. What
should I do? Thanks... --m--

Excellent! Thanks everyone for the pointers! --mark--

You mustn't die that means return an OK result (exit 0). But you mustn't
create a Makefile. I do that this way:
BEGIN {
eval {
require ModPerl::MM;
require Apache::TestMM;
};
if( $@ ) {
exit 0;
}
Apache::TestMM->import( qw(test clean) );
}
# accept the configs from command line
Apache::TestMM::filter_args();
...
It is documented, see http://cpantest.grango.org/wiki/CPANAuthorNotes. Look
for "How can I stop getting FAIL reports for missing libraries or other
non-Perl dependencies?"

not all things wanting to use Apache::Test have access to (or want)
mod_perl - Apache-Test is its own distribution on CPAN, so you might not
have ModPerl::MM

if mod_perl is a requirement, yes.

this is a Makefile.PL for an Apache-Test-based test suite where mod_perl
is not required.

Wouldn't that Makefile.PL die if mod_perl is not installed,
instead of requiring all libs and then running the tests
with them when they are followed by the CPAN user?
Don't I want it to prompt CPAN to follow dependencies? But
if I override &test in this way, how then do I run the tests
that need to be run once `make` has begun?
Aha, if I use ModPerl::MM then directives will work, nice.
Thanks!

Weird with the package namespace and MY:: and whatnot. But
maybe it should just die if it can't require ModPerl::MM. If
you haven't installed mod_perl and you can't figure out what
to do next, maybe you shouldn't install this module.

Sounds like a headache! Yeah I have decided I am too lazy to
live in the past while simultaneously trying to keep up.

See sub test in:
http://search.cpan.org/src/PHRED/Apache-Dispatch-0.10/Makefile.PL
In short, you override the test target in the Makefile. I can't take
credit for that code as I stole most of it from Geoff's modules :)
I'm trying to abstract a bunch of this dirty work out in
Apache::Bootstrap, but that is primarily geared at dual life mp1/mp2
modules, so I don't know how this conditional test code will fit in.
