You can also declare the `Response` parameter in dependencies, and set headers (and cookies) in them.

## Return a `Response` directly { #return-a-response-directly }

You can also add headers when you return a `Response` directly.

Create a response as described in [Return a Response Directly](response-directly.md) and pass the headers as an additional parameter:

{* ../../docs_src/response_headers/tutorial001_py310.py hl[10:12] *}

You can also use it directly to create an instance of it and return it from your *path operations*.

Read more about it in the [FastAPI docs about returning a custom Response](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/advanced/response-directly/#returning-a-custom-response)

You can import it directly from `fastapi`:

```python
from fastapi import Response
```

            * **FastAPI** adds a reference here to the global JSON Schemas in another place in your OpenAPI instead of including it directly. This way, other applications and clients can use those JSON Schemas directly, provide better code generation tools, etc.

///

The generated responses in the OpenAPI for this *path operation* will be:

```JSON hl_lines="3-12"
{
    "responses": {

      return IntMath.saturatedAdd(neighbors.size(), selfLoopCount);
    }
  }

  @Override
  public int inDegree(N node) {
    return isDirected() ? predecessors(node).size() : degree(node);
  }

  @Override
  public int outDegree(N node) {
    return isDirected() ? successors(node).size() : degree(node);
  }

  @Override
  public boolean hasEdgeConnecting(N nodeU, N nodeV) {
    checkNotNull(nodeU);

```Python
contents = myfile.file.read()
```

/// note | `async` Technical Details

When you use the `async` methods, **FastAPI** runs the file methods in a threadpool and awaits for them.

Remember that dependencies can have sub-dependencies?

`get_current_user` will have a dependency with the same `oauth2_scheme` we created before.

The same as we were doing before in the *path operation* directly, our new dependency `get_current_user` will receive a `token` as a `str` from the sub-dependency `oauth2_scheme`:

{* ../../docs_src/security/tutorial002_an_py310.py hl[25] *}

## Get the user { #get-the-user }

You can use the `TestClient` class to test FastAPI applications without creating an actual HTTP and socket connection, just communicating directly with the FastAPI code.

Read more about it in the [FastAPI docs for Testing](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/tutorial/testing/).

You can import it directly from `fastapi.testclient`:

```python
from fastapi.testclient import TestClient
```

Additional classes for handling WebSockets.

Provided directly by Starlette, but you can import it from `fastapi`:

```python
from fastapi.websockets import WebSocketDisconnect, WebSocketState
```

::: fastapi.websockets.WebSocketDisconnect

When a client disconnects, a `WebSocketDisconnect` exception is raised, you can catch it.

You can import it directly form `fastapi`:

```python
