If it’s worth boilerplating, it’s worth abstracting. How about
use Test::More::ForAuthor [ 'ARISTOTLE' ], plan => 42;
which loads and imports Test::More, then does the exact
equivalent of the boilerplate you showed?
Of course ideally it would be
use Test::More plan => 42, for_author => [ 'ARISTOTLE' ];
but that has the typical upgrade issues.
