 The current code is


 {{{
 if ( function_exists( 'exec' ) ) {
     $gs = exec( 'gs --version' );
     if ( empty( $gs ) ) {
 .....
 }}}

 `exec` is probably disabled on many hosts which means the test will not
 run at all.

 From looking at
 https://www.drupal.org/project/media_thumbnails/issues/3207465 it seems
 that imagick reports whether it supports PDF format as part of its phpinfo
 output. Maybe there is a direct API to get th information as well.

 If this is not robust enough, maybe the test should try to generate an
 image from a test pdf file.
