Options

-g grade

grade indicates the success or failure of the package's builtin tests, and is one of:

grade     meaning

pass      all tests included with the package passed
fail      some tests failed
na        the package does not work on this platform
unknown   the package did not include tests

-p package

package is the name of the package you are testing. If you don't supply a value on the command line, you will be prompted for one.

For example: Test-Reporter-1.27

-nc No comment; you will not be prompted to supply a comment about the package.

-t text

A short comment text line.

-f file

A file containing comments; '-' will make it read from STDIN . Note that an editor will still appear after reading this file.

-auto

Autosubmission (non-interactive); you won't be prompted to supply any information that you didn't provide on the command line. Implies -nc.

email-addresses

A list of additional email addresses that should be cc:'d in this report (typically, the package's author).

perl-version perl

An alternate version of perl on which the distribution was tested. This option allows reporting on versions of perl for which Test::Reporter is not installed.

-x transport

Specify a transport: Net::SMTP or Mail::Send. This is optional. One will be chosen for you automatically if not specified. See Test::Reporter docs for further information.
