```
test.DaemonState.is_running(self) -> bool
```

Whether the daemon has not exited.

[`DaemonState::Unreadable`] counts as not running: a fixture that
cannot prove its daemon is there has nothing to assert against.

## Example

```rust
let mut guard = libtmux::test::TestServer::new().await?;
assert!(guard.daemon_state().is_running());

guard.shutdown().await?;
```
