Having tests to wait for a performSelector to fire

Question

So I'm writing tests for this operation where I do something and if it fails we lazily try to perform this operation again using a performSelector:withObject:afterDelay:, now I would like to wait for my runloop in the tests to fire this performSelector before tearing down the tests. This essentially boils down to keeping the runloop up for some more time.

I've found

[[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] runUntilDate:[NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceNow:delta]];

to be useful and it works fine.

Is there a better way to do this??

Answer 1

Ok I missed this but as Abizern commented, Xcode6 introduces asynchronous testing. Here is the right way to do this. Scroll down to the Asynchronous testing section and this should suffice.
