Test-WWW version 0.11

=====================

Test::WWW is a basic module for the testing of Web applications. It is based

on a combination of WWW::Mechanize and Test::Builder, allowing it to be used

in conjunction with any other of the Test::Builder-based mechanisms.

In particular it includes the simple_scan utility, a test generator program 

that allows people who are not particularly familiar with Perl to code 

basic page tests.

Both Test::WWW::Simple and simlpe_scan provide a means of controlling whether

or not page fetches are cached; using caching for pages which do not change

on each fetch can dramatically decrease the runtime of tests which do multiple

checks on the same URL.

INSTALLATION

To install this module type the following:

   perl Makefile.PL

   make

   make test

DEPENDENCIES

  WWW::Mechanize (available from CPAN)
