The CRAN packet check detects a warning that the R CMD check --as-cran is not

Question

I recently sent a packet to CRAN and received the following errors.

WARNING: ignoring R_HOME environment value

checking the code that runs the package ... WARNING No examples, no tests, no blame.

I ran the R CMD check --as-cran using R 3.0.2 on OSX, and the only note that was reported was "New View." No warnings reported.

Is there an alternative way to run all the tests that CRAN will run on the package before sending?

Yes. Using win builder

You just need to download the source files and you will receive the results by email in 5-10 minutes.
