Create an asynchronous expectation in Swift Testing

Testing with asynchronous expectations

The Swift Testing framework vends a confirmation method which enables testing asynchronous code. However unlike XCTest’s XCTestExpectation, this confirmation must be confirmed before the confirmation’s body completes. Swift Testing has no out-of-the-box way to ensure that an expectation is fulfilled at some indeterminate point in the future.

The Expectation vended from this library fills that gap:

@Test func testMethodEventuallyTriggersClosure() async {
    let expectation = Expectation()

    systemUnderTest.closure = { expectation.fulfill() }
    systemUnderTest.method()

    await expectation.fulfillment(within: .seconds(5))
}
