repl,test: no test coverage for repl.start({ eval: fn })

[bnoordhuis]

It looks like we have no test coverage for the eval option to repl.start(). This should be remedied.

The only test I can find that passes eval is test/parallel/test-repl-options.js but it doesn't exercise its functionality, the callback is just a stub.

On tab completion - eval will be called with .scope as an input string.

I can't make this work, cmd is never '.scope'.

I think it originated in aad12d0

/cc @TooTallNate in that case.

@bnoordhuis

var pr = repl.start({eval: ...});
pr.context = {};

eval will be called with .scope command when the user hits tab on a simple expression without dot (including an empty line).

I've added a minimal test at #5192.

I too am unable to get the repl to fire the eval function on tab completion. ??? Assuming I'm not just Doing It Wrong, there should probably be a separate issue filed for that.

@Trott thoughts on LTS?

I'd say yes, add to LTS.
