Subject: | Test failures due to hash randomisation in perl 5.17.6 |
Since bleadperl v5.17.5-518-g7dc8663 your tests are failing under some
circumstances.
That commit introduced hash key randomization and it seems at least the test
t/15-ds.t
is hit by that. Find a sample fail report at:
http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/f01076c0-435a-11e2-a2e2-5e2fa8c9b5a1
You can read more about the change at
http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/commit/7dc8663964c66a698d31bbdc8e8abed69bddeec3
or at http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=1005122
You may have to run the test several times until the randomization
causes a fail.
Note: my smokers have produced FAILs of the 15-ds.t test only when
Net::DNS 0.70 or 0.71 was installed, smokers with 0.68 were stable in
the PASS area. So I tried downgrading to Net::DNS 0.68 and indeed, the
results became reliable PASSes again.
