I am not sure if I am understanding your question correctly.

Test::More and Test::Simple are compatible with eachother. They both
produce output that can be consumed by Test::Harness, and are inline
with the defacto testing style of nearly all CPAN modules.

If you have some existing tests for your script, and would like to write
additional tests using Test::Simple instead of Test::More, then yes,
that will work fine.

-Colin.
