This module simplifies the process of sending smoke test results (in the form of Test::TAP::Models) to a smoke server.

use Test::Chimps::Client;
use Test::TAP::Model::Visual;

chdir "some/module/directory";

my $model = Test::TAP::Model::Visual->new_with_tests(glob("t/*.t"));

my $client = Test::Chimps::Client->new(
  server => 'http://www.example.com/cgi-bin/smoke-server.pl',
  model  => $model
);

my ($status, $msg) = $client->send;

if (! $status) {
  print "Error: $msg\n";
  exit(1);
}
