Overriden fake ajax should return a jQuery Deferred object

[craigspaeth]

I need to assert something after a fail handler that depends on $.ajax returning a jQuery Deferred (or jqXHR) object.

e.g. Running a test like this:

it 'will stay the same after an error', ->
  $.getJSON('foo/bar').fail ->
    expect(foo.id).toEqual 'foo'

Will throw Cannot call method 'fail' of undefined

Mocking a jqXHR object would allow these callbacks to still work.

(Great project btw)

Hi Craig and sorry for the late answer. Deferreds should definitely be supported, but I probably don't have time to add it myself in the near future. I would be more than happy to merge pull requests if: 1. no existing stuff is borken 2. regression tests are in place 3. current style is used (4. solution is as low-maintenance / long-term usable as possible). You want to give it a try? Anyways it's the top item in the backlog currently.

Btw nice CoffeeScript :-)

Cool. I'll try to send you a pull request when I get the chance :)
