Thanks for nice article about unit testing with RL.
But what about async testing with Signals?
I found an interesting utility – https://github.com/eidiot/as3-…

Thanks,

Pavel

This allows you to substitute test implementations. When testing, we aren't trying to see if the automated DI works, we want to know the classes work independent of any external class, framework, or service.
