/// tip

Note that the test function is now `async def` instead of just `def` as before when using the `TestClient`.

///

Then we can create an `AsyncClient` with the app, and send async requests to it, using `await`.

{* ../../docs_src/async_tests/app_a_py39/test_main.py hl[9:12] *}

This is the equivalent to:

```Python
response = client.get('/')
```
