Custom action while await

hi! Thank you very much for the tool, it’s very useful!

could you tell me, is it possible to do some custom action while condition waiting? something like this:

// Publish an asynchronous event:
publishEvent(updateCustomerStatusEvent);
// Awaitility lets you wait until the asynchronous operation completes:
await()
    .atMost(5, SECONDS)
    .do(() -> pollEvent())
    .until(customerStatusIsUpdated());

and i expect that the method pollEvent() will be called by awaitility before check the condition.

now i use

// Publish an asynchronous event:
publishEvent(updateCustomerStatusEvent);
// Awaitility lets you wait until the asynchronous operation completes:
await()
    .atMost(5, SECONDS)
    .until(() -> {
        pollEvent(); 
        customerStatusIsUpdated()
    });

but it’s not elegant )

of course the method pollEvent should be non-blocking

Hi I have created PR for this issue. I am agree with @johanhaleby that is should not be exposed in the API and later on moved to a separate module. I have created to sample building block andThen and andBefore as a first draft. (still in WIP waiting for feedback)

@johanhaleby IMHO, it is not really worth to add that complexity…
