At the risk of tempting tilly into posting a top-level meditation in the subject, I disagree that can() is too tricky to get right.

Granted, many people get it wrong, but the solution is well documented.

I prefer to test my subs and methods with can_ok() because I prefer the way it documents failure, if things fail. It's also very handy to test exporting, if that's your style.
