NAME
       Test2::Plugin::UTF8 - Test2 plugin to test with utf8.

DESCRIPTION
       When used, this plugin will make tests work with utf8. This includes turning on the utf8
       pragma and updating the Test2 output formatter to use utf8.

SYNOPSIS
           use Test2::Plugin::UTF8;

       This is similar to:

           use utf8;
           BEGIN {
               require Test2::Tools::Encoding;
               Test2::Tools::Encoding::set_encoding('utf8');
           }

       You can also disable the utf8 import by using 'encoding_only' to only enable utf8 encoding
       on the output format.

           use Test2::Plugin::UTF8 qw(encoding_only);

import options
   encoding_only
       Does not import utf8 in your test and only enables the encoding mode on the output.

NOTES
       This module currently sets output handles to have the ':utf8' output layer. Some might
       prefer ':encoding(utf-8)' which is more strict about verifying characters.  There is a
       debate about whether or not encoding to utf8 from perl internals can ever fail, so it may
       not matter. This was also chosen because the alternative causes threads to segfault, see
       perlbug 31923 <https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=31923>.
