Subject: Mech 0.73_02 developer fails tests on cygwin w/ perl 5.8.0; minor aid offered that box is on internet
Love your module. I would like to use it at work, on my Win2000 laptop. Cygwin is a mature implementation of Unix flavored software on Windows. For my cygwin, Mechanize 0.73_02 fails t/click.t at line 19 I now understand how to get Makefile.PL to recognize that I am on the internet. The test to get www.google.com fails to recognize the ENV of http_proxy. By testing for a url on my side of the firewall, Makefile.PL will recognize that I am on the internet. (see below) I suggest that if the test to www.google.com fails, then a test to the url derived from the http_proxy be used. If the http_proxy can be pinged, we are apparently on the internet. Even with this fix, t/click.t fails. TEST_VERBOSE output is attached. I suspect the failure is really in the internal proxy that is fired up. Can the internal proxy-based tests be made optional for cygwin? Can the functionality of the internal proxy be tested on cygwin? I would be happy to test the internal proxy on my platform. $ diff Makefile.PL My.PL 13c13 < my $s = IO::Socket::INET->new(PeerAddr => "www.google.com:80", --- Show quoted text
> my $s = IO::Socket::INET->new(PeerAddr => "ectip.ba.dupont.com:80",
$ cygperl Makefile.PL It seems that you are not directly connected to the Internet. Some of the WWW::Mechanize tests interact with websites such as Google, in addition to its own internal tests. Do you want to skip these tests? [y] Do you want to install the mech-dump utility? [y] It looks like you don't have IO::Socket::SSL installed. You will not be able to process https:// URLs correctly. WWW::Mechanize likes to have Test::Memory::Cycle for some of its tests, but doesn't require it. Checking if your kit is complete...
