Expect is a tool for automating interactive applications such as telnet, ftp, passwd, fsck, rlogin, tip, etc. Expect really makes this stuff trivial. Expect is also useful for testing

automate tasks that you've never even thought of before and you'll be able to do this automation quickly and easily.
