How can I test async views in Django?

To test async views in Django, you can use the pytest framework along with pytest-asyncio. This allows you to write async test functions.

Can you show me an example of an async view test?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import pytest
from django.urls import reverse

@pytest.mark.asyncio
def test_async_view(client):
    response = await client.get(reverse('your_async_view'))
    assert response.status_code == 200

What about testing with database interactions?

For database interactions, you can use Django's database fixture in your tests. Just ensure your test is marked as async.

Are there any best practices for testing async views?

Yes, some best practices include keeping tests isolated, using mocks for external calls, and ensuring your tests are fast.
