    <p>What I like to do:</p> <p>I am using <a href="https://metacpan.org/module/Rex" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Rex</a> to remotely call tests at servers. I remotely execute the tests with a call the the local <code>prove</code>. I want to gather all the information about the testruns at the different servers at one place. To achieve this I run the tests with <code>prove -a</code> (and maybe also with <code>--merge</code> for capturing <code>STDERR</code>) to create an archive (<code>.tgz</code>). I then download this archive again with <code>Rex</code> to the controlling server. I think this is quite a good plan so far...</p> <p>My problem now is that I find a lot of hints on creating such a TAP-archive, but none of how I can actually read this archive. Sure, I could open and process it somehow with <code>Archive::Tar</code> or parse it manually with <code>TAP::Parser</code> as <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13781443/capture-and-split-tap-output-result">suggested</a> by Schwern. But knowing that there are formatters like <code>TAP::Formatter::HTML</code> or <code>TAP::Formatter::JUnit</code> (e.g. for Jenkins) I think there must be a way of using those tools directly on a TAP-archive? When I look up the docs I only find hints on how to use this stuff with <code>prove</code> to format tests while running them. But I need to use this formatters on the archive, I have been running <code>prove</code> already remotely...</p> <p>So far about the context. <strong>My question in short is:</strong> How can I use the Perl-TAP-Tools to format TAP coming from a TAP-archive produced by prove?</p> <p>I am thankful for any little hints. Also if you see a problem in my approach in general.</p>

    1. COHmmm... is it that I need to use a source handler for prove using the --source option?

    2. COHow about extracting the archive then using TAP::Parser::SourceHandler::File on the output files

    3. COYou mean by extracting the archive manually, parse the meta.yml and then add each TAP-file as a source handler? This is quite some work. Is it really that an archive is a read-only dead-end? Why do I then actually want to create such an archive. Then it would be much easier to call `prove --merge > results.tab` and then use this one file as a source. But this is weird... why does prove have an option to create archives if nobody can read them without a lot of extra coding. I really hoped there is a library which can handle archives.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
