Like you I'm beginning to look into using an XP-like unit-test framework in Perl, so the timing of your question here was good for me.

I think if you are personally going to see advantages from Test::More then you should use it. It may help you get that release out there, and asking people to install it before your module isn't overly unreasonable. It does look to be a generally useful module, you're not going to be the only one now looking down that way, and the user gets the advantage of potentially more stable code if you like your test tool.
