CPAN modules often have a "make test" phase, so that looks like a good 
enhancement to implement in the RPM::Specfile package.

There was a long thread not long ago on the Subversion mailing list about 
whether end users should run tests when installing from a source RPM 
(consensus was "yes") so that SRPM could also benefit. (Its tests take 
quite awhile.)
