What happens when you type either of the following:

which prove

[download]

...or...

perldoc -l prove

[download]

Either of those should specify where prove resides. If one or the other produces a path, make sure that path is part of your environment's path. If neither of those produce a path then move on to trying:

perldoc -l App::Prove

[download]

If that produces a path you know it's at least on your system. But possibly not installed properly. Then you'll want to try:

perl -MApp::Prove -e 0

[download]

That should produce no output. If you get an error, App::Prove probably isn't properly installed, and you may need to fetch the distribution from CPAN and install it. But on the other hand, if you get the good sign (no output), then App::Prove is installed, and you're back to looking at your environment's path again.

I can't be sure this will be helpful, but it's part of the process of elimination that I would look into myself. You could, of course, always just "cpan App::Prove" all over again and try to get a fresh install.
