param (
[int]$Val1,
[int]$Val2
)

Write-Output $($Val1 + $Val2)
}

Test-Add 10 12";
var output = await Exec.RunAsync(command, option);
Assert.Contains("22", output);

Execute command with timeout

var option = new ExecOption();
option.Timeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(3);
var sw = Stopwatch.StartNew();
var output = await Exec.RunAsync("timeout 60", option);
sw.Stop();
Assert.True(sw.Elapsed.TotalSeconds < 5);

Handler stdout and stderr asynchronously

var sb = new StringBuilder();
var option = new ExecOption();
option.IsStreamed = true;
option.OutputDataReceivedHandler = async (d) =>
{
    sb.AppendLine(d);
    await Task.CompletedTask;
};

var output = await Exec.RunAsync(@"echo hello
echo hello2
echo hello3", option);

Assert.True(output == "");

var sbStr = sb.ToString();
Assert.Contains("hello", sbStr);
Assert.Contains("hello2", sbStr);
Assert.Contains("hello3", sbStr);
