# VCS::CMSynergy -- Perl interface to IBM Rational Synergy
This module is a Perl interface to **IBM Rational Synergy** (at various
times also known as Continuus/CM, CM Synergy or Teleogic SYNERGY/CM),
a change and configuration management system from IBM.
It is implemented on top of the Synergy CLI,
hence you **must have the command line client ("ccm") installed** to use it.
## BUILDING
Unpack the distribution, change to its top level directory, and then
```
perl Makefile.PL
make
```
## TESTING
Make sure that the Synergy command client is installed and working:
- check your setting of the CCM_HOME environment variable
- test the installation with
```
$CCM_HOME/bin/ccm version
```
Run the tests with
```
make test
```
If everything looks OK, install the module with
```
make install
```
