Read the 30 lines around where I said, not just that line.

though I guess it's just:

system("echo testpass | $saslpasswd_path -a memcached -c -p testuser");

so that means:

echo "testpass" | saslpasswd2 -a memcached -c -p testuser
if you run that from the same directory as your memcached.conf (or use -f
to point to it?), it should create the file properly.

I'm saying to use the tool instead of just putting the username/password
into the file, and also using the sasldb_path: argument in memcached.conf
to point to the sasldb, instead of the environment variable.
