Raven Async and Tests

Dude.cs

public class RavenTestBase {
	Task<IDocumentStore> _createDocumentStore;

	ctor() {
		var source = new TaskCompletionSource<IDocumentStore>();
		
		_createDocumentStore = source.Task;

		Task.Run(async () => {
			var store = InitializeDocumentStore();

			await CreateIndices(documentStore);
			await Seed(documentStore);
			// or, await Task.WhenAll(CreateIndices(documentStore), Seed(documentStore)); if there are nodependencies

			try {
				source.SetResult(documentStore);
			}
			catch (Exception ex){
				source.SetException(ex);
			}
		});
	}

	virtual protected IDocumentStore InitializeDocumentStore() {
		return new EmbeddedDocumentStore{RunInMemory=true}.Initialize();
	}

	Task CreateIndices(IDocumentStore documentStore){

	}

	Task Seed(IDocumentStore documentStore) {

	}
}

public class NewFacts {
	[Fact]
	public async Task should_be_orwellian() {
		var store = await _createDocumentStore;

		Assert.IsTrue(false);
	}
}

quick question :) I don't understand the connection between this :

var source = new TaskCompletionSource<IDocumentStore>();
_createDocumentStore = source.Task;

and this

var store = await _createDocumentStore;

variables that are private are usually prepended with an _ .. so in the test/fact, you're trying to access a private variable (which is out of scope). I also don't understand why you would expose a Task as the result, instead of the IDocumentStore. Otherwise, we can just expose a method that does all the above, instead of the RESULT of the method (which is what I'm trying to expose).
