LibTmux.Testing.TmuxTestFactory.CreateSessionAsync(options: TmuxTestOptions?, cancellationToken: CancellationToken) -> Task<TemporarySessionScope>

session on a server nobody else will kill.

## Parameters

- `cancellationToken` (CancellationToken): Cancels the tmux commands.

## Returns

The scope owning the session.
