How to invoke two servers?

You can call test_tcp() twice!

    test_tcp(
        client => sub {
            my $port1 = shift;
            test_tcp(
                client => sub {
                    my $port2 = shift;
                    # some client code here
                },
                server => sub {
                    my $port2 = shift;
                    # some server2 code here
                },
            );
        },
        server => sub {
