Verify the file contents:

Now append the top portion of TAP format:

echo 1.. `wc -l < perlcritic_tap.results.1` | cat - perlcritic_tap.results.1  > perlcritic_tap.results

perlcritic_tap.results:

1.. 12

    It is a bug in the plug-in. It looks for *.tap, even though you specified a different file extension (the plug-in developer probably was drunk when he wrote that code). I’ve filled an issue for this, but you can have your results working in the current version (1.6) of TAP plug-in doing the following:

    1) as you mentioned, remove the space in the TAP plan (i.e.: 1..12 rather than 1.. 12).,

    2) instead of writing perlcritic_tap.results, use perlcritic_tap.tap.

    I’m preparing a patch for this and will cut a release in few hours. It takes a while before the update site is synced in Jenkins, but hopefully by Monday at work you should be able to use the plug-in with no problem.

    Let me know if you need anything. I’m quite new here, and don’t have Karma enough to add more links, but I’ve attached some screen shots of the plug-in using your TAP file to the issue in Jenkins JIRA 😉

    All the best, -kinow
