Back in the good old days there were several exams to be taken to achieve CATE (Certified AIX Technical Expert), including hardware (i had SP/2 as one of these tests for instance), AIX core themes like backup, tuning, troubleshooting, etc., and middleware: HACMP, ADSM, etc.

Today there are only 4 tests to be passed: pSeries Administration and Support (Test 222), pSeries Enterprise Support (Test 180) - these two have to be passed in exactly this order for reasons unknown - pSeries HACMP for AIX (Test 237), and IBM System p5 Virtualization Technical Support (Test 062).

Back in the good old days of the R/6000 the tests were real tests: you got questions and a piece of paper and had to write down your answer, which often included writing a small script or a part of one. Today there are only these multiple-choice-tests, where you can guess the right answer most of the times even if you don't know anything about the topic. Suffice it to say i haven't bothered to renew my certification as a CATE but let it drop.

NAME
Test::Requires - Checks to see if the module can be loaded SYNOPSIS
# in your Makefile.PL use inc::Module::Install; test_requires 'Test::Requires'; # in your test use Test::More tests => 10; use Test::Requires { 'HTTP::MobileAttribute' => 0.01, # skip all if HTTP::MobileAttribute doesn't installed }; isa_ok HTTP::MobileAttribute->new, 'HTTP::MobileAttribute::NonMobile'; # or use Test::More tests => 10; use Test::Requires qw( HTTP::MobileAttribute ); isa_ok HTTP::MobileAttribute->new, 'HTTP::MobileAttribute::NonMobile'; # or use Test::More tests => 10; use Test::Requires; test_requires 'Some::Optional::Test::Required::Modules'; isa_ok HTTP::MobileAttribute->new, 'HTTP::MobileAttribute::NonMobile'; DESCRIPTION
Test::Requires checks to see if the module can be loaded. If this fails rather than failing tests this skips all tests. Test::Requires can also be used to require a minimum version of Perl: use Test::Requires "5.010"; # quoting is necessary!! # or use Test::Requires "v5.10"; AUTHOR

If the "RELEASE_TESTING" environment variable is true, then instead of skipping tests, Test::Requires bails out. SEE ALSO
