in reply to CPAN dependencies and test results checker

Very nice!

I'm confused by the pass/fail numbers though. LWP shows 20 passes and 19 fails in your system http://cpandeps.cantrell.org.uk/?module=LWP but only 1 fail (and 22 passes) on CPANTS http://cpantesters.perl.org/show/libwww-perl.html.

Do you run your own tests? That would be a lot of work and possibly unrepresentative of multiple platforms. I would suggest scraping the results from CPANTS and aggregating all platforms of the latest version (don't know if there's some sort of XML feed of that).

    It has cached the results for what was the most recent version on the CPAN testers website on Sunday evening. Items stay in the cache for a week. I would be delighted to accept a patch to make it keep up-to-date while still not running like a stunned slug.
      That's surprising that CPANTS would have 19 fails for LWP on Sunday and only 2 on Tuesday.
        Guess when there was a new release of LWP :-)
