Laika testing really slow

[rickihastings]

Hi, I'm getting really slow test times, no idea whats causing it. My code runs instantly in meteor. I'm pretty sure I'm doing these right (well hopefully I am) but my tests are posted below.

var assert = require('assert');

suite('Client user forms', function() {
    test('register a user through signup form', function(done, server, client) {
        client.eval(function() {
            var homeModule = Object.create(HomeModule);
                homeModule.init();

            homeModule.signupFormSubmit({
                'your-name': 'John Smith',
                'irc-nickname': 'john',
                'email-address': 'john.smith@aol.com',
                'password': '123456',
                'confirm-password': '123456'
            }, function() {
                emit('ready', Session.get('signup.errors'));
            });

        }).once('ready', function(errors) {
            assert.equal(errors, '');
            done();
        });
    });

    test('register a user on the server and attempt to login through form', function(done, server, client) {
        server.eval(function() {
            var output = Meteor.call('registerUser', 'John Smith', 'john', 'john.smith@aol.com', '123456', '123456');
        });

        client.eval(function() {
            var homeModule = Object.create(HomeModule);
                homeModule.init();

            homeModule.loginFormSubmit({'login-email': 'john.smith@aol.com', 'login-password': '123456'}, function() {
                emit('ready', Session.get('login.errors'));
            });

        }).once('ready', function(errors) {
            assert.equal(errors, '');
            done();
        });
    });
});

You can see the homeModule in question here https://github.com/ircanywhere/ircanywhere/blob/0.2.0/client/js/home/module.js if necessary.

Tell me more about the slowness. It is acceptable to take 800ms - 2000ms. But if more than that, your app initializing db at startup or downloading something (webfonts or something similar)
