Flexunit_puremvc_testcase is a project mainly written in ActionScript, based on the MIT license.
A base TestCase which adds PureMVC support to FlexUnit tests for testing Flex/ActionScript projects
= 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:
PureMvcTestCase.as
into this new 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());
}
}
