Hello All

Sorry to ask this, but I've looked around and haven't seen how to do this.

I have a simple unit test using JbpmJUnitTestCase.  I want to validate my 
custom work handlers, so I have created a BPMN2 workflow with a work handler in 
it.  The work handler takes in some parameters and has results that are mapped 
to a variable.  I know that it is generally working correctly as I can put a 
script task after the custom task to output the variables to the console.  My 
unit test creates a parameter map and launches the flow:

| 
 | 
 | ProcessInstance processInstance = 
knowledgeSession.createProcessInstance("testprocess", parameterMap); |
| 
 | 
 | knowledgeSession.startProcessInstance(processInstance.getId()); |

I know I can do this in one step using the startProcess method.  This method 
above works, as does the startProcess method.

I am also able to successfully assert, e.g.:
assertProcessInstanceCompleted
assertNodeTriggered

However by this time the processInstance is completed (per the assertation).  
So the variable context has been destroyed and I cannot use standard JUnit 
asserts to validate the output, retreived using getVariableValue.

So does anyone have an idea how I am meant to get variables from the context 
after the flow is complete?  Or am I meant to watch the variables while the 
flow is happening, maybe through an event listener?

Thanks for any help.
