And this is exactly what do I want: lineReceived should 
cause some effect (in my case, for instance some database
update). So I call lineReceived with the intended string, and
want - in unit test - to verify whether the update was actually 
made (it is done by deferred subroutine). But, to check for it, 
I must wait for it somehow....
