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...
}}}
