in reply to Will I break CPAN?

Have you seen Test::DependentModules?

use Moops; class Cow :rw { has name => (default => 'Ermintrude') }; say Cow->new->name

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    Yes, I did, after reading Moose test file I was pointed to, which also uses MetaCPAN::API. By that time my own script already worked.

    Moose does have a good reason to roll its own. Look at the list of expected failures, which they nicely documented.

    I used the modules I already had available and did not realize I also had MetaCPAN::API installed. Now I do.

    I see a value for all three approaches. Maybe I'll simplify to using Test::DependentModules now that I am aware of it. I did look, but probably typoed on Dependant :/

    $ modlist depending
$ modlist dependant
Module name               Description                                 
+ Version
Statistics::DependantTTest
$ modlist dependent
Module name               Description

    My English can probably be improved a lot
