What's happening when I do this is that the Worker tries to get the Master actor by calling context.actorSelection(), and the RegisterWorker message gets sent to the dead letters mailbox instead of being picked up by expectMsg. I'm new to Akka and I've tried various ways to registering a "mock" master to no avail.
I would think there would be at least some kind of test for master - worker message passing, no?
