19 +### Asynchronous Testing
20 +
21 +The Problem
22 +
23 +A simple test-driven workflow is to write new code, execute tests locally, wait for them to finish and if they pass then going on.
24 +
25 +The Solution
26 +
27 +is a workflow that works well when the test take a few seconds only. This has the disadvantage that you only check your code changes for correctness against just a few very fast tests.
28 +
29 +Instead of waiting for your tests to finish locally, you should have a DevOps infrastructure which triggers a CI pipeline when pushing the code executing all tests. Doing that enables you to directly go on working without the need to wait minutes for the tests to finish. In case the CI piepline fails, you should get a notification to fix the CI pipeline immediately. This enables quite comprehensive testing, even having the same testing jobs running in parallel, even long taking ones.
