Have you seen Test::WWW::Mechanize? You can do much better if you adopt its use with a less data driven approach.

my $question = {
    1 => 'value_12345',
    2 => 'value_12346',
    3 => 'value_12347',
};

my @test = (
    'First page of sequence' => sub {
        my ( $mech, $name ) = @_;
        $mech->get( qq[some_uri] );
        $mech->content_like( qr/Some text/, $name );
        $mech->click;
    },
    'page seen after first click' => sub {
        my ( $mech, $name ) = @_;
        $mech->content_like( qr/Dst1/, "$name: destination1" );
        $mech->submit_form( fields => {
            $question->{ 1 } => 3, # Q1, choice 3 (radio button)
        } );
    },
    'page seen after second POST' => sub {
        my ( $mech, $name ) = @_;
        $mech->content_like( qr/Dst2/, "$name: destination2" ],
        $mech->content_like( qr/more text/, "$name: more text expected
+" ],
        $mech->submit_form( fields => {
            # ...
        } );
        $mech->back;
        $mech->back;
    },
);

my $verbose = 0;

my $mech = Test::WWW::Mechanize->new( ... );

while( my ( $name, $test ) = splice @test, 0, 2 ) {
    $test->( $mech, $name );
    diag $mech->current_form->dump if $verbose;
    sleep 1;
}
