Re: [Asunit-users] running asunit tests from a command line using gnash

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

Hey James,

This is definitely interesting work. Will the deployed application be
executed in the Adobe Flash Player? Or will it be executed in the Gnash
runtime. I would strongly caution you against running your test harness in a
different VM than your production code will run in. Especially one that is
still in alpha mode. It seems pretty likely that you're spend more time
fiddling with Gnash support than you would getting the Adobe linux player up
and running.

Speaking of which, there is a third, optional argument for the
TestRunner.start method. The signuature (from memory), should look something
like this:

function start(clazz:Class, methodName:String=null, showTrace:Boolean):void;

If you send a boolean true value to that third argument, you should get what
you're looking for.

Additionally, you may want to check out Sprouts. It's another open source
project that I've been working on this year. It lets you setup, build and
test ActionScript projects from the shell. This may be what you're looking
for, and I have actually seen it running on Linux!
