# Net::CLI::Interact::Transport::Loopback(3pm)

Testable CLI connection

## NAME

Net::CLI::Interact::Transport::Loopback - Testable CLI connection

## DECRIPTION

This module provides a wrapped instance of Perl which simply echoes back any input provided. This is used for the Net::CLI::Interact test suite.

## INTERFACE

### app

Defaults to the value of `$^X` (that is, Perl itself).

### runtime\_options

Returns Perl options which turn it into a CLI emulator:

```
 -ne 'BEGIN { $| = 1 }; print $_, time, "\nPROMPT>\n";'
```

For example:

```
 some command
 some command
 1301578196
 PROMPT>
```

In this case the output command was "some command" which was echoed, followed by the dummy command output (epoch seconds), followed by a "prompt".
