I just found this thread after noticing the same dependency today and looking for a way to potentially remove this. I don't quite see a dependency on minitest in the 'standard library' (by which I assume you mean the Rails gem itself). https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/rails.gemspec Or is there another dependency I'm missing?
As far as I can tell we would need to not autoload test_case.rb and then wrap the 'require' call to give a more meaningful error. It's not clear to me if we expect consumers of the gem to use the ActiveSupport::TestCase class, or is that purely for testing the library itself? I don't see any explicit examples for it in the documentation, but I'm also not that familiar with MiniTest.
