+ (description "@code{Test::Needs} allows you to skip test scripts if
+modules are not available. The requested modules will be loaded, and
+optionally have their versions checked. If the module is missing, the test
+script will be skipped. Modules that are found but fail to compile will exit
+with an error rather than skip.
+
+If used in a subtest, the remainder of the subtest will be skipped.")
