I know we tried to avoid external dependencies, but Cwd coming with 5.6.x is unusable under -T. At the moment this breaks some mp2 tests (the problem comes from A-T, which indirectly invokes Cwd::cwd via File::Spec's rel2abs. I've tried to code a workaround, but it doesn't work and it's a bad idea to get it working since it's very OS specific. (_backtick_pwd is the problem).
so we probably have no choice but require Cwd 2.06
if it's only breaking mp2 tests then those tests should probably have
plan tests => $n, need_min_module_version(Cwd => 2.06);
instead of requiring an external dependency for the entire framework.
not that I'm against external dependencies, but we should only require an external dependency when the codebase itself requires it. that is, it is your tests that need a higher Cwd, not Apache-Test proper.
It can affect any test, the problem is triggered by A-T. Any
File::Spec->rel2abs call may trigger the problem. It just happens to be triggered so far under mp2 tests.
