Create functions with a name that starts with `test_` (this is standard `pytest` conventions).

Use the `TestClient` object the same way as you do with `httpx`.

Write simple `assert` statements with the standard Python expressions that you need to check (again, standard `pytest`).

/// tip

Notice that the testing functions are normal `def`, not `async def`.

## Mounting a **FastAPI** application { #mounting-a-fastapi-application }

"Mounting" means adding a completely "independent" application in a specific path, that then takes care of handling everything under that path, with the _path operations_ declared in that sub-application.

### Top-level application { #top-level-application }

First, create the main, top-level, **FastAPI** application, and its *path operations*:

Note that the go_darwin_$GOARCH_exec wrapper uninstalls any existing app identified by
the bundle id before installing a new app. If the uninstalled app is the last app by
the developer identity, the device might also remove the permission to run apps from
that developer, and the exec wrapper will fail to install the new app. To avoid that,

    Optional<Path> getPomFile();

    /**
     * Gets the project that was built.
     *
     * @return The project that was built or {@code null} if an error occurred and this result accompanies a
     *         {@link ProjectBuilderException}.
     */
    @Nonnull
    Optional<Project> getProject();

    /**
     * Gets the problems that were encountered during the project building.
     *

  /**
   * Adds {@code equalityGroup} with objects that are supposed to be equal to each other and not
   * equal to any other equality groups added to this tester.
   *
   * <p>The {@code @Nullable} annotations on the {@code equalityGroup} parameter imply that the
   * objects, and the array itself, can be null. That is for programmer convenience, when the
   * objects come from factory methods that are themselves {@code @Nullable}. In reality neither the

// data and a flag, atEOF, that reports whether the [Reader] has no more data
// to give. The return values are the number of bytes to advance the input
// and the next token to return to the user, if any, plus an error, if any.
//
// Scanning stops if the function returns an error, in which case some of
// the input may be discarded. If that error is [ErrFinalToken], scanning

reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
threatening, offensive, or harmful. However, these actions shall respect the
licensing terms of the Project Developments that will always supersede such
Code of Conduct.

## Scope

 *
 * Each entry is 4 bytes, and represents all the code points that share a 14-bit prefix. Entries are
 * sorted by this 14-bit prefix.
 *
 * We define these values:
 *
 *  * **b0b1s7**: (b0 << 14) + (b1 << 7)
 *  * **b2b3s2**: (b2 << 9) + (b3 << 2)
 *
 * b0b1s7 is the section prefix. If a section is omitted, that means its ranges data exactly matches
 * that of the preceding section.
 *

The result will be discarded.

### Typed handlers

Typed handlers are handlers that have a specific type for the request and response payloads.
These must provide `msgp` serialization and deserialization.

In the examples we use a `MSS` type, which is a `map[string]string` that is `msgp` serializable.

```go
    handler := func(request *grid.MSS) (*grid.MSS, *grid.RemoteErr) {

                    corresponding JSON.
                * Filtering: the JSON sent to the client will only contain the data
                    (fields) defined in the `response_model`. If you returned an object
                    that contains an attribute `password` but the `response_model` does
                    not include that field, the JSON sent to the client would not have
