In the last part (code available here) we ended up with a functional widget transforming pure text markdown content into HTML in render mode and behaving like a standard FieldText when in edit mode.
Debouncing an input in JavaScript is a common technique to reduce the rate of execution of a function. If a user is typing inside an input and you execute a function on each change of that input (each letter typed) it can quickly lead to a lot of computation power being used on just that. The common technique is called debounced and it will delay the execution of the function listening to the input, only every X secondes. Odoo use _.debounce for this with the underscorejs library.
As we can see, SimpleMDE uses the underlying library CodeMirror to create his editor. So checking for the presence of the div with class .CodeMirror should validate the presence of the Editor. Let's write a new test.
