I have had a good experience 
using https://github.com/commander-cli/commander for testing CLI commands. 
It uses a yaml file for test config. I generally avoid yaml but the 
commander config format is easy to work with. Never used script, the state 
saving between commands feature might be missing in commander-cli.
