So why bother capturing runtests()? Catch the output of make test or prove.

Here's the smokebot that we use. At some point I should put it into Test::Harness proper. 

#!/bin/sh

if [ $# -lt 2 ]
then
    echo Must pass at least a branch, and one email address,.
    echo plus any parms to echo pass to smoke.
    exit 1
fi

BRANCH=$1
shift

MAIL=$1
shift

cd $TMP
DIR=tw
FULLPATH=$TMP/$DIR

# This assumes you have already logged in once as anoncvs
# so that the password is in your ~/.cvspass file.
#cvs -d/home/cvs -Q co -d $DIR -r $REV tw > /dev/null
svn co file:///home/svn/tw/$BRANCH $DIR > /dev/null

TWROOT=$FULLPATH
export TWROOT

/home/smoke/tw/Dev/devapache stop  >  /dev/null 2>&1
/home/smoke/tw/Dev/devapache start > /home/smoke/smoke.out 2>&1.

cd $TWROOT
smoke $@ >> /home/smoke/smoke.out 2>&1.
grep -i "^Failed" /home/smoke/smoke.out > /home/smoke/smoke.out.fail

if [ -s /home/smoke/smoke.out.fail ]
then
    STATUS="FAILED"
    mail -s"Smoke $REV $@ $STATUS `date`" $MAIL < /home/smoke/smoke.ou
+t
else
    STATUS="passed"
fi

/home/smoke/tw/Dev/devapache stop >> /home/smoke/smoke.out 2>&1.

Note that smoke is an early predecessor to prove, so modify for your tastes.
