Frontend tests to verify successful deployment

[preaction]

We should have some frontend tests that use a standard web client (curl, wget) to fetch a page from CPANTesters and check it for key bits. This will allow us to verify that the automated deployment (#3) happened successfully, especially when we change things around. This will also allow us to test VMs and other pre-production systems to catch problems before they're problems.

This seems like precisely the thing that melezhik's swat (simple web application test) tool is for.
