+Perl::Critic is an extensible framework for creating and applying coding
+standards to Perl source code. Essentially, it is a static source code
+analysis engine. Perl::Critic is distributed with a number of
+Perl::Critic::Policy modules that attempt to enforce various coding
+guidelines. Most Policies are based on Damian Conway's book
+Perl Best Practices.
+You can choose and customize those Polices through the
+Perl::Critic interface. You can also create new Policy modules that
+suit your own tastes.
+
+For a convenient command-line interface to Perl::Critic, see the
+documentation for perlcritic. If you want to integrate Perl::Critic with
+your build process, Test::Perl::Critic provides a nice interface that is
+suitable for test scripts.
