Summary: Review Request: perl-Test-Base Product: Fedora Extras Version: devel Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: normal Component: Package Review AssignedTo: bugzilla-sink@leemhuis.info ReportedBy: steve@silug.org QAContact: fedora-package-review@redhat.com
Spec URL: http://ftp.kspei.com/pub/steve/rpms/perl-Test-Base/perl-Test-Base.spec SRPM URL: http://ftp.kspei.com/pub/steve/rpms/perl-Test-Base-0.50-1.src.rpm Description: Testing is usually the ugly part of Perl module authoring. Perl gives you a standard way to run tests with Test::Harness, and basic testing primitives with Test::More. After that you are pretty much on your own to develop a testing framework and philosophy. Test::More encourages you to make your own framework by subclassing Test::Builder, but that is not trivial.
(This is a build requirement for the new version of perl-YAML currently in devel CVS.)

------- Additional Comments From steve@silug.org 2006-05-04 12:26 EST ------- Hold off reviewing this one for a bit... It requires Module::Install, which in turn requires a whole stack of modules. I'll be submitting that stack ASAP.

------- Additional Comments From tibbs@math.uh.edu 2006-05-07 22:01 EST ------- You might consider adding BuildRequires: perl(Algorithm::Diff), perl(Text::Diff), perl(YAML) for slightly better test coverage.
Review: * package meets naming and packaging guidelines. * specfile is properly named, is cleanly written, uses macros consistently and follows the Perl specfile template. * license field matches the actual license. * license is open source-compatible. It's not included separately in the package, but this is not necessary as the upstream tarball does not include it. * source files match upstream: 1917571661a8302626a8c82eb047f941 Test-Base-0.50.tar.gz 1917571661a8302626a8c82eb047f941 Test-Base-0.50.tar.gz-srpm * latest version is being packaged. * BuildRequires are proper. * package builds in mock (development, x86_64). * rpmlint is silent. * final provides and requires are sane. * no shared libraries are present. * package is not relocatable. * owns the directories it creates. * doesn't own any directories it shouldn't. * no duplicates in %files. * file permissions are appropriate. * %clean is present. * %check is present and all tests pass: All tests successful, 3 tests and 4 subtests skipped. Files=98, Tests=418, 6 wallclock secs ( 4.71 cusr + 1.49 csys = 6.20 CPU) * no scriptlets present. * code, not content. * documentation is small, so no -docs subpackage is necessary. * %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package. * no headers. * no pkgconfig files. * no libtool .la droppings. * not a GUI app.

------- Additional Comments From jpo@di.uminho.pt 2006-05-07 23:12 EST ------- I've some reservations about the approval of this module. It appears to have several optional/missing Requirements and BR.
BR: Text::Diff, YAML Req: Text::Diff, LWP::Simple, YAML
I think we should at least BuildRequires: perl(Text::Diff) and Requires: perl(Text::Diff), perl(LWP::Simple)
Note: IIRC the new version of YAML requires Test::Base => may cause circular dependencies problems. Note2: It's 4:00am. I will give another look at this module in a few hours.

------- Additional Comments From tibbs@math.uh.edu 2006-05-07 23:43 EST ------- You'll note I suggested the addition of those BR:s, but all they add is additional test coverage.
As far as I know, we have no policy on optional requirements. I suppose there's no harm in adding them as long as they're small and we have repoclosure, but I would argue that it would be a terrible idea to dictate that all optional requirements be made mandatory. So I would leave it up to the maintainer.

------- Additional Comments From steve@silug.org 2006-05-08 13:51 EST ------- I'm importing -2 with explicit dependencies on Text::Diff and Algorithm::Diff. That makes all the tests pass.
Let me know if I need to make any further changes.

------- Additional Comments From jpo@di.uminho.pt 2006-05-08 14:01 EST ------- Steven,
The Algorithm::Diff requirement and build requirement can be dropped as Text::Diff requires it.
The Test::Base::Filter may use the LWP::Simple module to download files. Being this a test module I think it should be nice to require it (not BR).

--- Comment #11 from Mathieu Bridon bochecha@fedoraproject.org 2011-01-19 04:22:39 EST --- This package is in EPEL5 but not EPEL6. Is there any reason for that?
I would like to see this package in EPEL6, and I am willing to help co-maintain it.
