/**
* A Circuit is the basic test unit against which test cases are to be written. A circuit consists of two 'ends', an
* instigating 'publisher' end and a more passive 'receivers' end.
*
* <p/>Once created, the life-cycle of a circuit may be controlled by {@link #start()}ing it, or {@link #close()}ing it.
* Once started, the circuit is ready to send messages over. Once closed the circuit can no longer be used.
*
* <p/>The state of the circuit may be taken with the {@link #check()} method, and asserted against by the
* {@link #applyAssertions(java.util.List)} method.
*
* <p/>There is a default test procedure which may be performed against the circuit. The outline of this procedure is:
*
* <p/><pre>
* Start the circuit.
* Send test messages.
* Request a status report.
* Assert conditions on the publishing end of the circuit.
* Assert conditions on the receiving end of the circuit.
* Close the circuit.
* Pass with no failed assertions or fail with a list of failed assertions.
* </pre>
*

* <tr><td> Supply the publishing and receiving ends of a test messaging circuit.
* <tr><td> Start the circuit running.
* <tr><td> Close the circuit down.
* <tr><td> Take a reading of the circuits state.

* <tr><td> Send test messages over the circuit.
