I would recommend that people *not* do that, but instead put their 'use_ok' 
statements in a single test.  I get tired of seeing 'use_ok $module or die' 
getting needlessly duplicated throughout a test suite, particularly since it's 
so easy to get wrong.

Here's a basic test script to find all modules and ensure you can use them:
