An exception throws if I try to run Patrol without having internet connection

Hi!

I was doing a POC (Proof Of Concept) between Flutter Integration Testing and Patrol here at the company I am working for, and I found a scenario that caught our attention: the behavior on an environment without internet connection.

I turned off the internet connection in my macBook then I tried to run the command below:

patrol test --target integration_test/tests/pix/ --device 'emulator-5554'

However, I got the error below:

ClientException with SocketException: Failed host lookup: 'pub.dev' (OS Error: nodename nor servname provided, or not known, errno = 8), uri=https://pub.dev/api/packages/patrol_cli
#0 IOClient.send (package:http/src/io_client.dart:154:7)

#9 main (file:///Users/cristiano/.pub-cache/hosted/pub.dev/patrol_cli-2.7.0/bin/main.dart:6:20)

For the Flutter Integration Testing no error happens, I was able to run the tests without problem.
This behavior on Patrol gave me some concern about the scenarios where the internet access is limited or even missing.

Could this Patrol error be seen as a bug?
