TestModuleFor{App,Acceptance} proposal about ember-test-helpers

[rwjblue]

I guess I don't understand what you mean.

Since we don't really need any special shenanigans to deal with bizarreness in Ember, this sort of thing likely lives in ember-qunit itself.

Sorry if this is too cryptic.

https://github.com/rwjblue/ember-qunit/pull/71 introduces a moduleForApp to wrap

https://github.com/ember-cli/ember-cli/blob/8d9c3a4579abb65416f40ec0dd46008b3c159a49/blueprints/acceptance-test/files/tests/acceptance/__name__-test.js#L3-L13

I'd like to push that forward, but it looks like that PR predates the ember-test-helpers / ember-qunit split, so I tried to work it into this repo instead but I hit a wall.

We've been toying around with implementing something like this for use in one of our addons. Thus far, we've been writing all the code inside the addon, but with an eye for potentially extracting it out for inclusion into ember-test-helpers

https://gist.github.com/Robdel12/c8470434a5e0ded666db

It's been working really well thus far, but my primary concern is with these lines here https://gist.github.com/Robdel12/c8470434a5e0ded666db#file-test-helper-js-L2-L3

Since this class is embedded into our addon, it has access to the (dummy) application's class and config, but is that going to pose a problem if this code were to live in ember-test-helpers?

Also, the startApp() test helper that gets generated by ember-mocha and ember-qunit acceptance-test blueprints allows passing one-off options to Application.create() per test. Changing settings suite-wide in environment.js for 'test' has always been sufficient for us, so we wouldn't miss that, but it might be a problem for others.

[cowboyd]

Unless anybody sees anything obviously flawed with this approach, we'll go ahead and submit the PR.

[seanpdoyle]

@cowboyd I say go ahead, I have an outstanding PR to ember-cli/ember-cli, but I'm having some trouble with it.

If we could get something working in this repo instead, I think we'd be better off.
