# Testing Events: startup - shutdown

When you need your event handlers (`startup` and `shutdown`) to run in your tests, you can use the `TestClient` with a `with` statement:

```Python hl_lines="9-12  20-24"
{!../../../docs_src/app_testing/tutorial003.py!}

                    var content = document.createTextNode(event.data)
                    message.appendChild(content)
                    messages.appendChild(message)
                };
                event.preventDefault()
            }
            function sendMessage(event) {
                var input = document.getElementById("messageText")
                ws.send(input.value)

            ws.onmessage = function(event) {
                var messages = document.getElementById('messages')
                var message = document.createElement('li')
                var content = document.createTextNode(event.data)
                message.appendChild(content)
                messages.appendChild(message)
            };
            function sendMessage(event) {

from fastapi import FastAPI

app = FastAPI()

items = {}


@app.on_event("startup")
async def startup_event():
    items["foo"] = {"name": "Fighters"}
    items["bar"] = {"name": "Tenders"}


@app.get("/items/{item_id}")
async def read_items(item_id: str):

          token: ${{ secrets.FASTAPI_LATEST_CHANGES }}
      # Allow debugging with tmate
      - name: Setup tmate session
        uses: mxschmitt/action-tmate@v3
        if: ${{ github.event_name == 'workflow_dispatch' && github.event.inputs.debug_enabled == 'true' }}
        with:
          limit-access-to-actor: true
      - uses: docker://tiangolo/latest-changes:0.3.0
      # - uses: tiangolo/latest-changes@main
        with:

Diese Funktionen können mit `async def` oder normalem `def` deklariert werden.

### `startup`-Event

Um eine Funktion hinzuzufügen, die vor dem Start der Anwendung ausgeführt werden soll, deklarieren Sie diese mit dem Event `startup`:

```Python hl_lines="8"
{!../../../docs_src/events/tutorial001.py!}
```

            - include_router
            - get
            - put
            - post
            - delete
            - options
            - head
            - patch
            - trace
            - on_event
            - middleware

from fastapi import FastAPI

app = FastAPI()


@app.on_event("shutdown")
def shutdown_event():
    with open("log.txt", mode="a") as log:
        log.write("Application shutdown")


@app.get("/items/")
async def read_items():

B. einen `@app.on_event("startup")`-Callback....
