The idea is to have a way for a test suite to be run and then the results saved. These results can then be read back later either on that machine or another. This was originally written for Smolder, but since the format is not specific to Smolder (it's just the original TAP all packaged up) I thought I would release it to help others. I imagine Pugs could use it as well as CPANTS. In fact, I've had people want to have CPANTS somehow hook into a Smolder install, so that it's easier to examine the results. -- Michael Peters Developer Plus Three, LP
