I have a rather ugly implementation at
http://jeremy.kister.net/code/argus/converse.pl


note: the command is one line.

 Service Prog {
  label: SMTP Conversation
  command: converse.pl -a hostname -p 25 -c '^220\s##HELO
foo##^250\s##MAIL FROM:<>##^250\s##RCPT
TO:<bitbucket at example.net>##250\s##quit##^221\s'
  nexpect: ERROR
 }
