Self test suite for the libwww-perl library
-------------------------------------------
Tests are invoked by running the ./TEST script, but usually you run
the tests with "make test" at the top libwww-perl directory. Use -v
option for verbose tests. You might run an individual test like this:
./TEST -v base/date
or all tests in a directory like this
./TEST base
You enable network tests by creating the "net/config.pl" file. A good
start is to make a copy of the "net/config.pl.dist" file. For network
tests you should also make a link from the cgi-bin directory of your
http server to the "net/cgi-bin" directory. You might also have to
check that the interpreter line (#!.../perl) in the scripts is ok for
your system. The following setup works for my site:
ln -s `pwd`/net/cgi-bin ~www/cgi-bin/lwp
cp net/config.pl.dist net/config.pl
emacs net/config.pl # fix if necessary
./TEST net
