Description
Sometimes you have tests that are nice to run, but depend on tools that may not be available. Instead of
adding the tool as a dep, or making the test always skip, it is common to make the test run
conditionally. This package helps make that possible.
This module is modeled after Test::Requires. The difference is that this module is based on Test2
directly, and does not go through Test::Builder. Another difference is that the packages you check for
are not imported into your namespace for you. This is intentional.

# The test will be skipped unless 'Other::Module' is installed and at
# version '5.555' or greater.
use Test2::Require::Module 'Other::Module' => '5.555';
# We now need to use them directly, Test2::Require::Module does not import
# them for us.
