I can not imagine deploy to production where you pull dependencies on production box. You build it on build server or locally and then deploy compiled/bundled system.
But still starting project where you can pull dependencies for development with dependency manager and setup first thing in let's say 25% faster, I'd choose that.
For testing I would agree framework is not a must have.
