I see absolutely no mention of Test::Simple and two spots indicating that Test::More version 0.99 is required and Perl is finding Test::More version 0.98. Plus there are quite a few test error messages that have the following:

Test::More version 0.99 required--this is only version 0.98 at

I'm unable to find a single error message in the posted output that mentions Test::Simple. It looks to me like Test::Simple is not the issue and that the OP needs to update Test::More to version 0.99 or newer (latest release version is 1.001014).
