How to write a vows js bdd test for an asynchronous recursive operation

Code.js

var Util = function(){
    function factorial(n, callback){
        if(n == 1){
           return n;
        } else {
           return n*factorial(n-1, callback);
        }
        /*callback(returnValue); */ // Where should this line go?
    }

    return{
      factorial: factorial
    };
};

exports.Util = Util;

Test.js

var vows = require('vows'),
    assert = require('assert'),
    Util = require('./Code').Util;

var u = new Util();


vows.describe('Testing Utils').addBatch({
     'Test Factorial async':{
          topic: function(){
                u.factorial(5, this.callback);
           },
          'The output must be 120': function(result, ignore){
              assert.equal(result, 120);
           }
      }
}).run();

run on node.js

> node Test.js

I get the error callback not fired.

What I understand is just before my function returns if I am able to put this script: callback(computeValue); this should work IMHO. Please correct me If I am wrong. However, I do not understand where can I insert this. Thanks for your time!

First of all, your code isn't asynchronous, you need to use process.nextTick or setImmediate and, in the current situation the test case should look like I wrote below:

code.js

var Util = function () {
    this.factorial = function (n) {
        if (n == 1) {
            return n;
        } else {
            return n * this.factorial(n - 1);
        }
    }
};

exports.Util = Util;

test.js

var vows = require('vows'),
    assert = require('assert'),
    Util = require('./code').Util;

vows.describe('Testing Utils').addBatch({
    'Test Factorial async': {
        topic: new Util,
        'The output must be 120': function (util) {
            assert.equal(util.factorial(5), 120);
        }
    }
}).run();
