Yes it looks like I missed that .0. But for some reason :consumer.0
isn't working for me for send-keys so I've changed all the commands to
use the index of the window instead of the name.

When I run the script this is the output I get:
$ ./test.sh
rm: cannot remove `/tmp/wait': No such file or directory
cat: /tmp/wait: No such file or directory

Here is the updated script:

#!/bin/bash
session="scenario1"

rm /tmp/wait

tmux new-session -d -s $session

tmux new-window -t ${session}:1 -n 'consumer'
tmux pipe-pane -t ${session}:1.0 'cat > /tmp/wait'
sleep 1
tmux send-keys -t ${session}:1.0 "echo build" C-m
sleep 2
tmux pipe-pane -o -t ${session}:1.0

cat /tmp/wait
