If you mean replace "use Test" with "use Test::Simple" the problem is
except in the very, very simple cases Test.pm's ok() function works
differently from Test::Simple/More's ok() function. Test.pm's ok() is like
ok(), is() and like() all rolled into one.
Test.pm Test::More
ok( $foo ); == ok( $foo );
ok( $foo, $bar ); == is( $foo, $bar );
ok( $foo, '/regex/'); == like( $foo, '/regex/' );
ok( $foo, $code_ref); == is( $foo, $code_ref->() );
