RobotLegs AS3 Framework Unit Tests

I’ve started putting together some unit tests for RobotLegs:

Feel free to fork if testing is your idea of insane weekend fun!

    My idea of insane weekend fun is rewriting AsUnit (part of it anyway). =)

    I’ve never used an MVC or IoC framework, but have been reading a lot of critiques. I like your philosophy; I’m a big Misko Hevery fan as well.

    Unit tests for RobotLegs will certainly help someone like me consider it. I just wonder why the tests didn’t come first [wags finger].

    That’s because I don’t actually do any unit testing or TDD myself, I just like to read and talk about them. Same with all that OOP, architecture and design pattern malarkey.

    No, I’m deeply ashamed.. I was hoping nobody would notice that little detail.

    Today I tried to make up for it by writing some tests for a DI library. Maybe it’s just me, but writing unit tests for annotation driven dependency injection can get a little abstract – the labels tend to invert themselves when you cross over the metadata/class/instance boundaries [decides it's time to sleep].

    I gather you’re talking about SwiftSuspenders:

    Github sure speeds up collaboration (as long as you know Git well enough).

    Indeed – penance for my sins. I need to take AsUnit for a spin one of these day.

    Yeh, the Git learning curve can be a little steep. Thank goodness for the GitHub Guides:
