Subject: t/live/computers4sure.t: Failures in tests 5 and 6
Had to install WWW::Mechanize in order to use Parrot developer tool tools/dev/nopaste.pl. While doing so, I experienced failures and an early exit in the file named above: $ prove -v t/live/computers4sure.t t/live/computers4sure.... 1..9 ok 1 - use WWW::Mechanize; ok 2 - Created object isa WWW::Mechanize ok 3 - Fetched http://www.computers4sure.com/ ok 4 - Found a likely word in the first page not ok 5 - Should have lots of product links # Failed test 'Should have lots of product links' # at t/live/computers4sure.t line 24. # '0' # > # '10' not ok 6 - The object isa WWW::Mechanize::Link # Failed test 'The object isa WWW::Mechanize::Link' # at t/live/computers4sure.t line 27. # The object isn't defined Can't call method "url" on an undefined value at t/live/computers4sure.t line 28. # Looks like you planned 9 tests but only ran 6. # Looks like you failed 2 tests of 6 run. # Looks like your test died just after 6.

The page you are linking to in this test file, http://www.computers4sure.com/, appears to have changed the way its hyperlinks are written. As a consequence, these tests are obsolete: my @links = $mech->find_all_links( url_regex => qr{product\.asp\?productid=} ); cmp_ok( scalar @links, '>', 10, 'Should have lots of product links' ); ok( scalar @links, 'Should have lots of product links' ); my $link = $links[@links/2]; # Pick one in the middle print STDERR "link: $link\n"; isa_ok( $link, 'WWW::Mechanize::Link' ); my $link_str = $link->url;

Had the same problem while installing Catalyst with HTML::FormFu. As a workaround I changed the test file to fetch a product listing: #my $first_page = 'http://www.computers4sure.com/'; my $first_page = 'http://www.computers4sure.com/category.asp?Catid=47&view=browse'; Now the test run successful.

I would be happy to (at least tentatively!) host content for the live tests that would never change. This bug has bitten me twice this week. I'd also supply a "run live tests?" prompt patch, like those featured in many other dists, if it will be considered. -- rjbs
