Detailed Description

Extends QCoreApplication to support tests requiring an event loop.

QCoreApplication::exec() is not supposed to be interrupted by unhandled exceptions, however, we will throw CppUnit exceptions from within QCoreApplication::processEvents() if a test that needs the event loop fails.

We solve the problem by reimplementing notify() to catch all CppUnit exceptions, store them and exit(1) the event loop. Our new implementation of exec() checks the stored exception and rethrows it so that CppUnit can report the failed test.

Todo:
Move to its own module?
