How does this compare to Test::Reporter::HTTPGateway?
I haven't looked into the matter, so I ask just to get some information.
I wasn't aware of Test::Reporter::HTTPGateway so I'm not entirely sure
how it compares...
From a quick look:
The 'http' mailer posts the report to an URL,
'Test::Reporter::HTTPGateway' takes a HTTP requests and uses the
parameters in it to send the email.
If someone is stuck behind a firewall then they can currently set up
Test::Reporter::HTTPGateway on another server but they have (I think!)
no (easy) way of sending the Smoke reports to it.
It can currently not be used directly by the 'http' mailer.
(Test::Reporter::HTTPGateway sends it to an address specified in the
code while the 'http' mailer add parameters for the To, Cc and Bcc)
Kind regards,
Bram
