I have a need to write a test that involves validaing correct functionality of components that are displayed within PopUps. I feel like I'm missing something obvious, but what I am seeing is that the primary component that I create the popup with is seemingly being created correctly (at least it's dispatching the correct lifecycle events as it would normally), but its children are not being instantiated at all; they all appear to be null. The primary component is a VBox subclass, and the children that won't instantiate are Label subclasses. I don't have any special magic going on (such as deferred creation) on the VBox that might cause this. This is with Flex 3.5, but I imagine that Flex 4 or 4.5 the same sort of thing would occur.
This case is not covered in the documentation, and before I waste another day or two on it, I thought I'd seek advice from the collective wisdom (you).
Thanks for any insight or assistance you can provide.
