NAME

remotetest.pl - make tests on a remote machine

SYNOPSYS

remotetest.pl MyInteresting-Dist-1.107.tar.gz machine1.domain machine2.domain

DESCRIPTION

The script remotetest.pl copies a Perl distribution (see ExtUtils::MakeMaker) to each of the listed machines via scp and proceeeds to run make test on a temporary directory. Check your distribution on diferent platforms avoiding the familiar excuse It works on my machine.

The script assumes that automatic authentification via ssh has been set up with each of the remote machines.

When conecting to machine1.domain the program checks if a file with name machine1.domain.premable.pl exists. If so it will be loaded and evaluated before running the tests in machine1.domain

Example

I have a file named beowulf.preamble.pl in the ditribution directory:

pp2@nereida:~/LGRID_Machine$ cat -n beowulf.preamble.pl
   1  $ENV{GRID_REMOTE_MACHINE} = "orion";

Now when I run remotetest.pl for a distribution in machine beowulf the environment variable GRID_REMOTE_MACHINE will be set in beowulf prior to the execution of the tests:

pp2@nereida:~/LGRID_Machine$ scripts/remotetest.pl GRID-Machine-0.090.tar.gz beowulf
