Testing

The project is covered with tests wherever possible. In order to run the tests you must have ant installed. To run the tests simply navigate your current directory to the build directory and then run the command displayed below.

ant test

This will compile the code and execute the test runner. It also outputs a JUnit report to a deploy folder. Should be noted that you may need to change the path to your Flex SDK, which can be done by changing the FLEX_HOME property in the build/build.properties.
