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

[Robert S. <rob...@gm...>]

Thanks for the response.  I found the yahoo example in the comm folder of
the AsUnit repository, and figured it out from there.  Is there currently a
way to keep from having to explictly reference all the test methods as in
NUnit or JUnit?  Though that probably uses reflection, and I am not sure AS3
supports anything like that or not.

I will try to post a tutorial on how to use AsUnit with AS3 sometime soon.
I will CC this list so y'all can correct me if I'm wrong about something.

As far as usage goes, I am planning to simply have two projects, one that
uses my library and another that tests it.  Speaking of testing, are y'all
aware of anything that will let you do functional testing on Flash Apps.
That would be a huge selling point with my boss.

I am uncertain as how to use the TestSuite class. Does that work like test
suites in JSUnit were you can just load multiple runners and have them
execute at once?  If so, could someone point me to an example?

Thanks again for your help,

Robert
