Is Perl module Test::Simple needed?

Question

I don't get it. There is a great module Test::More witch is part of Perl distribution. But sometimes in some Perl modules there are links to the module Test::Simple .

Test::Simple is not part of the Perl distribution so to install some modules that need Test::Simple you should install Test::Simple first.

Are there any reasons why to use Test::Simple instead of Test::More?

PS for example, Test::Simple dependency is written in file https://metacpan.org/source/MMIMS/Net-Twitter-4.00007/META.yml

Answer 1

Test::Simple is part of the Core distribution, so there is no need to install it:

corelist Test::Simple

Test::Simple was first released with perl v5.6.2

Here is a quote from the POD:

This module is by no means trying to be a complete testing system. It's just to get you started. Once you're off the ground its recommended you look at Test::More.

Answer 2
