Add testing section to docs

[trp07]

Good evening,

I know issues might not be the best place to ask this, but I can't seem to find anything online. Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

How might someone write a unit test in PyTest to test a function that calls aiosmtplib.send() inside it?

For example:

# Function in my application
async def myfunc():
    call_some_other_func()
    await aiosmtplib.send(...)

# Unit testing with PyTest
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_myfunc():
    # what goes here?

I got everything I needed from this tutorial:
https://agariinc.medium.com/strategies-for-testing-async-code-in-python-c52163f2deab

AsyncMock is native to python 3.8, but the tutorial shows how to create one for earlier python versions.

Apologies for opening an issue on the topic. I’ll close it with this comment :)

Going to reopen as a reminder to add a testing section to the docs 🙂
