Async testing with vows using the http.get library in Node.js

Question

I\'m having a doozie of a time trying to get a basic http test to work with vows.

I think I\'ve followed the async example from vows http://vowsjs.org/#-writing-asyn

It is actually missing in the documentations which is still a bit short. But you can get a glimpse of it here in this page :

'when peeled *asynchronously*': {
        topic: function (banana) {
            banana.peel(this.callback);
        },
        'results in a `PeeledBanana`': function (err, result) {
            assert.instanceOf (result, PeeledBanana);
        }
    }

As it was said by Morten Siebuhr and Ruben Tan, this is how vows works and that is why it works like that.
