- Use MetaCPAN to look up reverse dependencies instead of CPANDB. (doy)
- Silence all of the test running and installing. (doy)
- Avoid dying on avoidable errors (turn them into test fails or skips as
appropriate). (doy)
- Use Test::Builder instead of Test::More so $TODO works properly. Also, mark
todo tests in the log files. (doy)
- The test_module sub now also initializes the log files. (doy)
- A distro's configure_requires prereqs are now respected. (doy)
0.12 2011-07-20
- Logging was broken when using multiple processes. The prereq log file would
end up appearing under multiple names (potentially one per process), and the
files were not locked for writing in each process.
- The directory to which prereqs were installed got cleaned out after each
process exited when running multiple processes, which often caused false
failures for modules being tested.
0.11 2011-04-21
- Forcibly reload the CPAN index each time this module runs tests. This gives
you the best chance of finding the most reecent version of a dependent
module.
0.10 2011-04-21
- Test output now includes the distribution id rather than just a module name,
meaning you can see the distro version in the ok line.
0.09 2011-04-12
- Parallel testing caused bad test output when a test was skipped because a
module could not be found on CPAN.
- The output from running a distro's Makefile.PL/Build.PL could stomp on the
TAP output when running tests in parallel. We now simply close STDOUT when
running this step, which is less than ideal, but fixes the breakage.
0.08 2011-04-12
- This module can now run tests in parallel if you have Parallel::ForkManager
installed. See the docs for details.
- The test_module() sub has been deprecated in favor a new sub,
test_modules(). If you use test_module(), you can't ever run tests in
parallel.
- We now defer loading CPAN.pm and related modules until tests are
running. This avoids the possibility of CPAN prompting for config if
Test::DependentModules is loaded but not actually used.
0.07 2010-07-15
- Include author id in status line.
0.06 2010-07-14
- Ignore cargo-culted diag() output that's present in many modules, looking
like this:
# Testing Foo::Bar 0.01, Perl 5.00801, /usr/bin/perl
This was being treated as a warning, but it can safely be ignored.
0.05 2009-12-12
- Renamed the test_all_my_deps function to test_all_dependents.
0.04 2009-12-12
- Renamed to Test::DependentModules, since as Jesse Luehrs pointed out, we're
not testing our dependencies, we're testing things that depend on us.
- All environment variables names starting with PERL_TEST_MD now start with
PERL_TEST_DM.
- In some weird inexplicable case, testing a module seemed to somehow trigger
File::Temp's cleanup routine too early, deleting the temp dir containing
temporary prereq installations. Test::MyDeps now manages its temp dir
manually.
- Changed how logging works. There are now three log files created, and you
specify a log _directory_, not a file, via the
0.03 2009-12-12
- Added missing prereq on IO::Handle::Util
0.02 2009-12-12
- Fixed test_all_my_deps so the exclude parameter actually works.
- The PERL5LIB var did not include the temp dir containing temporarily
installed second+ level depenencies.
- Renamed the TEST_PERL_MD_CPAN_VERBOSE env var to PERL_TEST_MD_CPAN_VERBOSE.
0.01 2009-12-12
- First version, released on an unsuspecting world.
