--- Comment #2 from Paul Howarth  ---
It's called perl-Test-Simple because the upstream distribution on CPAN is
called Test-Simple (https://metacpan.org/release/Test-Simple).

Here's a useful trick for you: to install an arbitrary perl module from the
Fedora repos, even if you don't know which package it's in, e.g. Test::Simple,
do:

# dnf install 'perl(Name::Of::Module)'
e.g.
# dnf install 'perl(Test::Simple)'

The packages themselves use dependencies in this format because modules move
from one distribution to another from time to time, and this format works
whichever package ends up shipping a module.

And is a dependency for just about any package you would want to install
through CPAN.
