Hey guys thanks that worked, ya I am almost there in having it 
completely automatic build, the process would be

--> downloading from the module's repository --> perl Makefile.PL --> 
make --> make test --> code coverage --> posting test results and code 
coverage results executed on different platforms

I believe I can do the make test and code coverage in one part as code 
coverage actually covers code against the tests which are run.
