#### Async Tests
Async tests require a 'print' function to be supplied to the test runner. Here are some good defaults:
Engine | Filename | Print Function
-------|----------|---------------
V8/Node | node | console.log
V8/shell | shell | print
SpiderMonkey<sup>1</sup> | js | print
JavaScriptCore<sup>2</sup> | jsc | print
