How do 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 a simple example?

Sure! Here's a basic 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 if I need to test database interactions?

For database interactions, you can use Django's test database setup. Just ensure your async test functions are properly set up to handle database transactions.

Are there any specific libraries I should use?

Yes, besides pytest and pytest-asyncio, you might also consider using httpx for making async HTTP requests in your tests.
