bash

I have written a perl script , I just want to give it to every one ,
for that I planned to write a bash script which is used to test the
environment of a user and find whether that environment is capable
of running the perl script.

I want to test the things like
o. Whether perl has installed in that system
o. Perl should have the version 5 or more
o. Whether the module JSON::Any is available

Any suggestion would greatly appreciated :-)
