 Currently, when writing tests for an application that sends signals,
 there's no easy built-in way to test the sending of signals.

 A simple solution would be to add a context-manager assertion that can
 check a signal was sent and received keyword arguments with certain names,
 and then further inspection of the received arguments could be done inside
 the `with` block. For example:

 {{{
 with self.AssertSignalSent(some_signal, required_kwargs=['my_kwarg']):
     # ...do stuff...
 }}}
