Hi Brian, I think to we start to consider doing this we will need a stronger reason than load less code for production Rails apps. AFAIK, we don't require active_support/test_case in production environment so we are not loading minitest at production too.
If that is the case we should fix this, but I don't think we need to extract a new library.
