in reply to What's in a Repo?

As I see it, though, it's difficult to skip a test that requires unavailable modules.

Not really:

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings 'FATAL' => 'all'; use Test::More; BEGIN { if ( eval { require Cache::Memcached } ) { plan tests => 1; } else { plan skip_all => "Cache::Memcached is not installed"; } } { require_ok( 'My::Module' ); # or whatever you want to test }

    Example: Advanced testing requires Test::More 0.94 while basic tests do not. I don't know exactly how to handle this. You're urged to get involved. I won't pretend I can't use help. But this is a side issue to the main point of this node.
