Hmm, discovered just such a case in (at least) one of my modules that might be picked up by a suitable test module. Looks like CPAN is finding classes inside my distribution (not in the lib subdir) that are there to support testing. So searching on 'test dbi' brings up DBI::Test as number 1 result, which might look promising, until you discover it's just a stupid support module for some test cases. Yuk. d.
