Why do you need a test name space. Is this just to check the formatting
of the upload file? http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=596075 works
reasonably well for that. Also there is a  way in PAUSE of scheduling
files for deletion. That is a good thing as I am sure noone wants really
old versions hanging around for every module.

Even if I would delete the file, the namespace I had chosen for the .pm test
file would be registered for me. Search for CGIAPP_TestApp2 on cpan and you
will see what I mean.

I would like to avoid this namespace pollution, at least at this level, by
introducing a lower level namespace exactly for such things.

Hi Alex

Sure, delete it. That makes sense.

As for your test namespace, wouldn't it be better to use Test::CgiApp?

I'm thinking Test::CGI::Application::* is getting long, but it's good to
encourage people to be consistent about both releasing tests (for
C::A-based modules) and keeping them together.

And Test::* is /the/ namespace prefix for tests...

This is totally dependent on where you put your modules. Most people put
testing modules that are only useful for your specific module inside
t/lib/ so that they aren't indexed like the things in lib/.
