Unit testing support for asynchronous code

asyncflux.testing.gen_test(func=None, timeout=None)

Testing equivalent of @gen.coroutine, to be applied to test methods.

@gen.coroutine cannot be used on tests because the .IOLoop is not already running. @gen_test should be applied to test methods on subclasses of AsyncTestCase.

Example:

class MyTest(AsyncHTTPTestCase):
    @gen_test
    def test_something(self):
        response = yield gen.Task(self.fetch('/'))

By default, @gen_test times out after 5 seconds. The timeout may be overridden globally with the ASYNC_TEST_TIMEOUT environment variable, or for each test with the timeout keyword argument:

class MyTest(AsyncHTTPTestCase):
    @gen_test(timeout=10)
    def test_something_slow(self):
        response = yield gen.Task(self.fetch('/'))

New in version 3.1: The timeout argument and ASYNC_TEST_TIMEOUT environment variable.

Changed in version 4.0: The wrapper now passes along *args, **kwargs so it can be used on functions with arguments.
