Subject: t/back fails if Crypt::SSLeay is not installed
distribution: WWW-Mechanize-1.16 perl: perl, v5.8.7 built for i486-linux-gnu-thread-multi OS: Linux 2.6.12 #1 SMP Fri Nov 4 20:35:55 CET 2005 i686 GNU/Linux Important things first: thanx a lot for a great modul. I labeled this one 'important' because a test is failing. But it is almost too simple to fix it :) The 4th test in t/live/back.t tests if the attemtp to follow the second link on http://www.google.com/intl/en/ was successful. This link ("sign in") uses https. So the test fails if Crypt::SSLeay is not installed. You could probably: * just use the third link, since at the moment all other links don't use https (the simple solution) * detect if the link uses https and try to load Crypt::SSLeay on the fly (but if it is not installed you have to use the next link anyway). I would suggest the first one. A diff: 19c19 < $mech->follow_link( n=>3 ); --- Show quoted text
> $mech->follow_link( n=>2 );
Have a nice day, gerhard

Another possibility is to test on webpages the module author controls so the module's tests don't break if Google redesigns. [guest - Thu Nov 10 15:43:15 2005]: Show quoted text
