How can I test async views in Django using the test client?

How can I test async views in Django using the test client?

You can use Django's AsyncClient to test async views. It allows you to make async requests in your tests.

Can you show me a code example of using AsyncClient?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

from django.test import AsyncClient

async def test_my_async_view():
    client = AsyncClient()
    response = await client.get('/my-async-view/')
    assert response.status_code == 200

What if I need to test a view that requires authentication?

You can use the login method of the AsyncClient to authenticate the user before making the request.

Is there a way to test WebSocket views as well?

Yes, you can use Django Channels' testing tools to test WebSocket views asynchronously.
