For what it's worth, I wrote
Ni[kt] picking comments:
There's no example code in the SYNOPSIS.
Your example code which uses Test::Symlink should show how to set up the
plan. Namely: use Test::Symlink tests => 2;
I think not verifying that the destination exists is a mistake as probably
the biggest issue with symlinks is th

I have a concern on this relating to portability.
How will the module behave on platforms that don't have symlinks?
In theory symlink_ok() will automatically skip any tests that it's asked
to do if symlinks aren't supported.
Since I don't have systems that I can test it on wher

As someone whose production code is currently required to run under
5.5.3, I'm very grateful to module authors whose code still runs under
that version at least. A number of modules which don't run under 5.5.3
do with simple changes, primarily changing "our" to "use vars" and
getting rid of x.y.z

That said, here's the main differences:

Once you go through the initial pain of backporting its not too big a deal
to keep things working as long as you're not doing XS. qr// is the only

Fix a problem with the "easy way" of doing things.
Warn if Test::Tester isn't the first Test::Builder module loaded as
this can cause problems when doing things the easy way.
I've just been through the should-I-shouldn't-I-support-5.4 with my
(painfully slow) rewrite of Compress::Zlib. In the end I included limited
support for 5.004 because I could, plus I have no feel for how much pain I
would cause folk if I didn't.
