h2. Utility classes for unit test signals.

This library is a utility for "Robert Penner":http://robertpenner.com/ 's "as3-signals":http://github.com/robertpenner/as3-signals with some delegate methods to test them with FlexUnit4:

* proceedOnSignal

* handleSignal

* failOnSignal

* registerFailureSignal

h3. proceedOnSignal

Use this method to ensure that some signal is dispatched during an asynchronous test.


[Test(async)]

public function test_proceedOnSignal():void 

{

    var model:IModel = new SomeModel();

    proceedOnSignal(this, model.changedSignal);

    model.doSomethingChange();

}



h3. handleSignal

Use this method to ensure that some signal is dispatched and do more assertions in the handler. The handler method must have two arguments. The first one is a SignalAsyncEvent, you can get all arguments passed by the signal's dispatch() method by event.args. The second Object typed argument is the data passed by the passThroughData argument in the handleSignal method.


[Test(async)] 

public function change_user():void 

{

    var model:IModel = new SomeModel();

    handleSignal(this, model.changedSignal, verify_user, 500, {name:"Tom", age:20});

    model.changeUser("Tom", 20);

}

private function verify_user(event:SignalAsyncEvent, data:Object):void 

{

    assertEquals(event.args[ 0 ], data.name);

    assertEquals(event.args[ 1 ], data.age);

}



h3. failOnSignal

Use this method to ensure that some signal is not dispatched during an asynchronous test in a time period.


[Test(async)] 

public function not_changed():void 

{

    var model:IModel = new SomeModel();

    failOnSignal(model.changedSignal);

    model.doSomethingNotChange();

}



h3. registerFailureSignal

Use this method to fail a test when a signal is dispatched. Think you are waiting for a success signal of a service, you will want to fail the test when the service's error signal is dispatched instead of waiting until timeout.


[Test(async)] 

public function call_service():void 

{

    var service:IService = new SomeService();

    registerFailureSignal(this, service.failedSignal);

    proceedOnSignal(this, service.successSignal);

    service.call();

}
