    Looks like good progress! As pointed out in one of my comments, I think we 
should make the use a bit more intuitive. Having two methods which are named so 
similar but which do different things is not a good idea. IMO it would be 
better to have one method that applies (and checks) the required options to the 
parsed parameters.

>          Issue Type: Improvement

> In FLINK-1525 we've added the {{ParameterTool}}.
> During the PR review, there was a request for required parameters.
> This issue is about implementing a facility to define required parameters. 
> The tool should also be able to print a help menu with a list of all 
> parameters.
> This test case shows my initial ideas how to design the API
> {code}
>       @Test
>       public void requiredParameters() {
>               RequiredParameters required = new RequiredParameters();
>               Option input = required.add("input").alt("i").help("Path to 
> input file or directory"); // parameter with long and short variant
>               required.add("output"); // parameter only with long variant
>               Option parallelism = 
> required.add("parallelism").alt("p").type(Integer.class); // parameter with 
> type
>               Option spOption = 
> required.add("sourceParallelism").alt("sp").defaultValue(12).help("Number 
> specifying the number of parallel data source instances"); // parameter with 
> default value, specifying the type.
>               Option executionType = 
> required.add("executionType").alt("et").defaultValue("pipelined").choices("pipelined",
>  "batch");
>               ParameterUtil parameter = ParameterUtil.fromArgs(new 
> String[]{"-i", "someinput", "--output", "someout", "-p", "15"});
>               required.check(parameter);
>               required.printHelp();
>               required.checkAndPopulate(parameter);
>               String inputString = input.get();
>               int par = parallelism.getInteger();
>               String output = parameter.get("output");
>               int sourcePar = parameter.getInteger(spOption.getName());
>       }
