Hi,
I just used RPMforge package perl-Mail-Sender, and am looking at the
perl cpan site for info, anyone got a simple way to determine if the
module is working properly?
A very superficial test. If it fails, then the module is definitely not
working. In my case, it's not even installed:
###########################################################
$ cat perl-test
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use Mail::Sender;
$ ./perl-test
Can't locate Mail/Sender.pm in @INC (@INC contains:

For more thorough tests, I guess you could write a simple Perl script
and actually test the module's functionality. Can't really beat that for
accuracy in testing.
