Re: [Asunit-users] Asynchronous test was [trigger on tests complete]

Hi there.

Luke posted an entry on running Asynchronous tests on his blog a while back=
:

Essentially, you override the TestCase classes run(), setup() and
teardown() methods, and when you're ready to do your asynchronous test
you call them. It's quite sub-optimal, and I'm currently trying to
figure out the best way to go about doing this in the general case,
but at the moment I'm doing this:

public function run(){
       //override this method so that your testcase will do nothing
until explicitly told to
}

public function setUp(){
     //setup whatever you need for your tests
     //set a callback or some other method to signal to the test
method that the
     //asynchronous process is finished
    someTest();
}

public function tearDown(){
    //delete your class instance, or whatever
}

public function someTest(){
     //do test
     //...
     //tearDown();
}


It's a pretty ugly hack, but it does allow you to continue using the
framework with asynchronous objects.

Read Luke's post all the way through though, and make sure that this
is actually what you need.

Hope this helps,
Alias
