What is the problem or limitation you are having?

The documentation describes the existence of the requires and test requires settings, but doesn't indicate the format these settings should take.

Describe the solution you'd like

The documentation for requires and test_requires should indicate that any PEP 508 version specifier is legal, and provide some explicit examples:

  • Bare pacakge name
  • Package name with version specifier
  • Git repository
  • Local directory
  • Local wheel file.

Describe alternatives you've considered
