Hmm.  Better?  It's a less useful test, since it runs in a fake
environment and skips a lot of code.  It's not worthless, but it's no
replacement for running tests against a real server.  If you have things
like mod_rewrite rules, or want to test that your apache config is
right, or make sure your proxy is doing uploads and handling cookies
correctly, you really need a live server.

An alternative is usually a good thing though.  I expect you would use
an approach similar to how people use Mason from a command-line script,
and wire it in to a mech wrapper the same as the Catalyst::Test script
does.
