Bug #82938 for Test-CPAN-Meta-YAML: Hash-Randomization makes ->error() ordered randomly

Thu Jan 24 15:38:14 2013 KENTNL [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

Subject:

Hash-Randomization makes ->error() ordered randomly

Given the following test[1] I just wrote for Module::CPANTS::Analyse which takes results from ->error [2] it would appear that the content of ->error() is not predictable, and is prone to hash-randomization, and presently causes t/10_analyse.t in MCA to randomly fail, whereas my test will consistently fail until this bug is resolved.

As I'm not sure if this bug is the scope of MCA or Test::CPAN::Meta::YAML's to fix, I'm filing it in both places.

My apologies, the proposed tests (and solutions) are already merged into others branches, which is why I removed my branch.

So this bug should be fixed for MCA when it comes out next.

But it still indicates that T:C:M:Y has results that are randomly ordered, and this behaviour might want to be fixed , or at least, a documented expectation.
