    not reviewed by a human for accuracy") is included along with a blank
    line before your C<comment.txt>, so that it is always possible to
    distinguish automated tests from non-automated tests that use this
    module.

  Using CPAN::Reporter
    Once CPAN::Reporter is enabled and configured, test or install modules
    with CPAN.pm as usual.

    For example, to test the File::Marker module:

      cpan> test File::Marker

    If a distribution's tests fail, users will be prompted to edit the
    report to add additional information that might help the author
    understand the failure.

UNDERSTANDING TEST GRADES
    CPAN::Reporter will assign one of the following grades to the report:

    *   "pass" -- distribution built and tested correctly

    *   "fail" -- distribution failed to test correctly

    *   "unknown" -- distribution failed to build, had no test suite or
        outcome was inconclusive

    *   "na" --- distribution is not applicable to this platform and/or
        version of Perl

    In returning results of the test suite to CPAN.pm, "pass" and "unknown"
    are considered successful attempts to "make test" or "Build test" and
    will not prevent installation. "fail" and "na" are considered to be
    failures and CPAN.pm will not install unless forced.

    An error from Makefile.PL/Build.PL or make/Build will also be graded as
    "unknown" and a failure will be signaled to CPAN.pm.

    If prerequisites specified in "Makefile.PL" or "Build.PL" are not
    available, no report will be generated and a failure will be signaled to
    CPAN.pm.

PRIVACY WARNING
    CPAN::Reporter includes information in the test report about environment
    variables and special Perl variables that could be affecting test
    results in order to help module authors interpret the results of the
    tests. This includes information about paths, terminal, locale,
    user/group ID, installed toolchain modules (e.g. ExtUtils::MakeMaker)
    and so on.

    These have been intentionally limited to items that should not cause
    harmful personal information to be revealed -- it does *not* include
    your entire environment. Nevertheless, please do not use CPAN::Reporter
    if you are concerned about the disclosure of this information as part of
    your test report.

    Users wishing to review this information may choose to edit the report
    prior to sending it.
