From the Mojolicious wiki on the topic of Database support:
Although SQL::Abstract looks like having much more dependencies, they
are needed only during testing, so you can safely use the module with
your application in a shared(hostile) environment. Just unpack it in
your lib directory.
Is there any way I can list the dependencies needed only during testing (on a unix-like system)?
See key
build_requiresin the distro meta file (specifications: v1.4, v2).If SQL-A would upgrade to META spec v2, you could distinguish between genuine build deps and test deps.
