--- Comment #11 from Walter Bright <bugzilla at digitalmars.com> ---
The autotester tests Ddoc by using diff to compare Ddoc's output with a "known
good" file. If the output changes, then the diff says the files are different,
and the autotester fails. A human is needed to check to see if the new output
file is good or not. I don't know any other way to test it.

I suppose that other web frameworks don't have this problem because they don't
check the output.

BTW, although you need dmd to generate Ddoc, you rarely need the latest
version, because Ddoc rarely changes from version to version.
