Hi,
First of all please take what I'm about to say with a pinch of salt, as I
really don't know what I'm talking about half the time.

As reactors can only be started once, I would imagine calling it from a
test function would be largely pointless.

Depending on what test suite you're using there should be a way of calling
reactor.stop() at the end though... or something.

HTH,
