With CPAN Testers it's not possible to install 3rd party software automatically. The only advice I can give is to check the prereqs in Makefile.PL or Build.PL, and die early with some diagnostics about missing software --- so a tester may decide if he should manually install the missing software.
That said, I doubt that cpanminus should be in the list of deps --- all CPAN prereqs should theoretically be installable with the normal approach (e.g. specifying PREREQ_PM in Makefile.PL or similar).
