Quick answer: RTFM :(
http://www.masonhq.com/docs/manual/Devel.html#using_the_perl_debugger
Plugging in the Apache::DB is as easy as it could be. Using it could be
trickier. Just read the docs, you will get on the right track in
(almost) no time.
As for the "print() debugging", you should print() to "STDERR", so those
messages (usually) go to apache's errors log ("warn" could be better
though). Apache::Log can do the same, e.g. $r->log->debug(...).
For automated testing, take a look at Test::WWW::Mechanize (or it's
Test::WWW::Simple little brother).

"Caching" after "Apache restart"?! You really mean that? :))
I'm quite sure there's NO "restart" there. By "restart" I understand
"process shutdown", "process startup". There's no place for any caching
here. ;-)
