When I created Games::QuizTaker, I wrote the module under a different package name, and used a simple test script to check the functions at various stages. When I was ready for CPAN, I renamed the package, created a directory structure using h2xs, and dropped the module in. I also modified the Makefile.PL to include my name and email address, and wrote the README file and the tests. Then all that was left was to make the distribution file and submit.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
