in reply to Test::Unit and PPM

Why not download Test::Unit from CPAN and install it without ppm? Install nmake.exe (from http://msdn.microsoft.com and you can install with (after downloading from CPAN and unzipping):
perl Makefile.PL nmake nmake test nmake install

    I tried it. 'nmake install' ends with:
    t\try_examples....FAILED tests 1-4
    Failed 4/4 tests, 0.00% okay
    Failed Test      Stat Wstat Total Fail  Failed  List of Failed
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    t\try_examples.t                4    4 100.00%  1-4
    Failed 1/3 test scripts, 66.67% okay. 4/83 subtests failed, 95.18% okay.
    NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe' : return code '0x9'
    Stop.
    
      t\try_examples....FAILED tests 1-4

      Read the source for that test. Its expected to fail on Win32. Try 'nmake install' again. (It seems like you jumped straight to 'nmake install' without doing 'nmake' and 'nmake test' first, so it tried to do all three at once and failed at the test)

        Sorry, there is a typo in my previos reply to you. Instead of 'nmake install' it must be 'nmake test'. There was result of 'nmake test', I didn't run 'nmake install' yet.
