= 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:

• Create the following directory structure under your flex project: test/org/puremvc/as3/test
• Copy the file PureMvcTestCase.as into this new directory.
• 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());
}

}
