README

        
= PureMvcTestCase

This TestCase class allows testing of PureMVC code through FlexUnit.  The style is intended to mirror EventfulTestCase (another extension to FlexUnit).

== Installation

Installation is easy! Just drop the file into an appropriate directory:

1. Create the following directory structure under your flex project:

    test/org/puremvc/as3/test

2. Copy the file `PureMvcTestCase.as` into this new directory.

3. Ensure that your compiler settings will look in that directory.

You should now be able to import PureMvcTestCase into your test classes.

== How do I use it?

When creating your test class, have it extend PureMvcTestCase.

Here are the methods which are made available:

    * expectNotification(notificationName:String) 

          Sets up the expectation that a notification is sent with the passed name. Can be called multiple times to set the expectation for multiple notifications.

    * assertExpectedNotificationsOccurred(userMessage='') 

          Asserts that all expected notifications were sent. The userMessage parameter indicates an optional message to be prepended for a failure message.

    * lastActualNotification

          Property which represents the last notification which was sent (the last actual notification).

== Example Test Class

The following is an example of the kind of test you can write:

public class ChuckProxyTest extends PureMvcTestCase

{

    private var chuck:ChuckProxy = new ChuckProxy();

 

    public function testShouldSendFlashNotificationWhenSeeingTerrorist():void

    {

        var terrorist:Terrorist = new Terrorist();

        expectNotification(ApplicationFacade.FLASHED);

 

        chuck.lookAt(terrorist);

 

        // asserts FLASHED notification was sent

        assertExpectedNotificationsOccurred();

        // asserts notification body was the terrorist

        assertEquals(terrorist, lastActualNotification.getBody());

    }

}
