Should be possible to do in a test file, untested for irony:

use Test::More;
ues Perl::Critic;
my $policy = Perl::Critic->import(
    -verbose  => 8,
    -severity => 5,
    -profile => '/path/to/corporate/perlcriticrc',
    -exclude => [
    ],
    -include => [
        'Subroutines:ProhibitUnusedPrivateSubroutines',
    ],
);

$policy->add_policy( -policy => 'Modules:ProhibitExcessMainComplexity'
+, -params => {max_mccabe => 10} )

foreach my $file (globidyglob some files) {
   my @dohs = $policy->critique($file);
   is(0, not scalar @dohs, "for shame!");
}

You could probably do it with Test::Perl::Critic, but I couldn't figure out how to get it to pass the max_mccabe param through off the top of my head and it's Friday beer O'clock time :)

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
