Many volunteers have organized a smoke test of your module on many platforms. Simply as a result of uploading your registered module to the CPAN, your module will be downloaded and make test'ed on many different kinds of machines. You can view the results of the tests at http://testers.cpan.org. You should note any failures and consider using the feedback to release a new distribution that works more portably.
