WWW::Mechanize should include Test::More as a test_requires (or build_requires under Module::Build), rather than just a requires. While Test::More is indeed a core module, some distributions (e.g. Fedora) split core modules out into distinct sub-packages... Adding Test::More as a test_requires will make it easier for automated packaging / build tools to correctly package (and update!) this module, as well as not install more than what is actually required at runtime. Thanks! :)
