[Question]: proper whay to advance tasks forward

[Nedgeva]

Hey @TylorS ! Thanks for very useful lib 👍
Right now i'm using somewhat a workaround like this

const [timer, scheduler] = createVirtualScheduler();
const advanceTasks = (value = 0) => timer.progressTimeBy(value);

...to propagate tasks (even those that don't have explicit delays).
So i have to call advanceTasks() each time i want to stream to be resolved.
I wonder if there's a batter approach to do that.

Hey, @Nedgeva I'm glad this lib is proving useful for you. To make sure I understand, is it that you don't want to call advanceTasks/progressTimeBy or that you just don't want to have to give them an explicit time period?

AFAIK calling progressTimeBy is mandatory to make streams runnable (since we're using "virtual" scheduler), so yes is there option to run streams w/o explicitly calling progressTimeBy with 0 value?

Not currently, but I'd be happy to accept a PR to add the default of 0 since it's useful for you
