ImportError without optional dependencies
See original GitHub issueAfter #8, from testcontainers import PostgresContainer fails because __init__.py imports the selenium submodule.
If you want to keep the top level imports the submodules will need to catch ImportError and set the imported names as None. Then in the classes that use them check if the imported names are None and raise an exception about the optional dependencies.
