Type "make test" to run the tests, and be sure Apache::Test
is installed prior to running "perl Makefile.PL".
+IMPORTANT NOTE: The test suite in libapreq-1.1 was based
+on Apache::test, which is now in the process of being phased
+out of mod_perl-1.X. During the transition period, some
+platforms may have difficulty running our new test suite.
+Users that have successfully installed libapreq in the past
+may wish to ignore the test results and install anyway, but this
+is not recommended. Please upgrade to the newest version of
+mod_perl-1.X and pull the latest version of Apache::Test
+off of CPAN.
+
+Also, if you have more than one apache+modperl installation on your
+system, Apache::Test might need help in determining which build
+to use for the tests. One way to do this is to pass an -apxs
+or -httpd argument to MakeMaker:
+
+ % perl Makefile.PL -apxs /path/to/apache/bin/apxs
+ or
+ % perl Makefile.PL -httpd /path/to/apache/bin/httpd
+
+ % make && make test
+
+Please read the INSTALL file and Apache::Test documentation
+for more details.
