# Testing WebSockets

You can use the same `TestClient` to test WebSockets.

For this, you use the `TestClient` in a `with` statement, connecting to the WebSocket:

```Python hl_lines="27-31"
{!../../docs_src/app_testing/tutorial002.py!}
```

/// note

Sie können den schon bekannten `TestClient` zum Testen von WebSockets verwenden.

Dazu verwenden Sie den `TestClient` in einer `with`-Anweisung, eine Verbindung zum WebSocket herstellend:

```Python hl_lines="27-31"
{!../../docs_src/app_testing/tutorial002.py!}
```
