Subject: Are you aware that cpantesters report mostly FAILs?
First an apology: I report your bug here because on the bug tracker page you mention in the README (https://gna.org/bugs/?group=testautobuild) I could not find a "report bug" button. You may want to clarify how bugs shall be reported in your README.--Thanks. Now to my point: the cpantesters matrix shows an awful lot of red. http://bbbike.radzeit.de/~slaven/cpantestersmatrix.cgi?dist=Test-AutoBuild;maxver= Is this sad state known to you? Thanks!

Yes, I'm aware cpantesters shows alot of failures. These are all basically the result of a problem in one single test case, rather than the application code itself. Furthermore this fail is made impossible to see in the cpantesters reports, because of a horrible bug in Class::MethodMaker causing it to output thousands of lines of junk Name " Test::AutoBuild::Monitor::label_reset" used only once: possible typo at /home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pmR9beJ/perl-5.10.0@33542/lib/site_perl/5.11.0/i686-linux/Class/MethodMaker/Engine.pm line 781. which isn't the fault of Test::AutoBuild. There will be a new autobuild release soon which will try & fix the test case problem. Hopefully CPAN testers will have updated their installs of Class::MethodMaker by now to avoid the pile of irreleant warnings.
Closing because the problems in Class::MethodMaker have been resolved a while ago now.
