Test::perl::critic wraps the perl::critic engine in a convenient subroutine suitable for test programs written using the test::more framework. this makes it easy to integrate coding-standards enforcement into the build process. for ultimate convenience (at the expense of some flexibility), see the criticism pragma.
if you'd like to try perl::critic without installing anything, there is a web service available at http://perlcritic.com. the web service does not support all the configuration features that are available in the native perl::critic api, but it should give you a good idea of what it does.
