Re: [Asunit-users] Help. Having problems compiling swf using ASUnit and AS3.

[Luke B. <lb...@gm...>]

I'm not sure why you're getting that particular error, but you should be
running your test cases from a TestRunner, not just instantiating them
directly.

Essentially, you want two application roots, one that is your deployed
application, and the other that extends asunit.textui.TestRunner and calls:

start(TestCaseOrTestSuite:Class, [methodName:String, traceOutput:Boolean]);

Then you want MXMLC to switch between the the deployed application root or
your concrete TestRunner depending on what you're doing at the moment.

You should know that if you pass a methodName to the start method, the base
TestCase will call setUp, then the method and stop. This gives you the
ability to attach visual assets to the stage (using
TestCase.addChild(child:DisplayObject)),
and actually see them...


Please let us know if that doesn't solve the problem.


Thanks,
