`pytest-asyncio `_ is a `pytest `_ plugin. It facilitates testing of code that uses the `asyncio `_ library.
Specifically, pytest-asyncio provides support for coroutines as test functions. This allows users to *await* code inside their tests. For example, the following code is executed as a test item by pytest:
.. code-block:: python
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_some_asyncio_code():
res = await library.do_something()
assert b"expected result" == res
More details can be found in the `documentation `_.
Note that test classes subclassing the standard `unittest `__ library are not supported. Users
are advised to use `unittest.IsolatedAsyncioTestCase `__
or an async framework such as `asynctest `__.
pytest-asyncio is available under the `Apache License 2.0 `_.
Installation
------------
To install pytest-asyncio, simply:
.. code-block:: bash
$ pip install pytest-asyncio
This is enough for pytest to pick up pytest-asyncio.
