Test async work with assert_eventually
This post covers a custom helper function that I use in many projects. It allows you to wait until an async task has completed without using Process.sleep/1. assert_eventually is a small assertion helper that checks that your test condition will succeed, eventually. It's particularly helpful if you have to test complex asynchronous processes and all you want to do is start them, lean back, and check whether your system reaches the expected end-state within a given time frame.

Keep your head up in these trying times ❤️
