I am facing a problem while unit testing an asynchronous call in iOS. (Although it is working fine in view controllers.)
Has anyone faced this issue before? I have tried using a wait function but I'm still facing the same problem.
Please suggest an example of a good way to do this.

To test asynchronous code, we use the XCTestExpectation class and wait for the expected outcome. The workflow is to create an expectation, and then when the asynchronous task completes successfully, we fulfil that expectation. We will wait for a specific amount of time for the expectation to be fulfilled.
Unlike async void unit tests that are quite complicated, you can have async Task unit tests, i.e., unit tests that return a Task instance. Almost all the unit test frameworks (MSTest, NUnit, etc.) provide support for such unit tests.
It's common in JavaScript for code to run asynchronously. When you have code that runs asynchronously, Jest needs to know when the code it is testing has completed, before it can move on to another test.
Asynchronous is an online environment where interaction does not take place at the same time, while a synchronous environment provides real time learning. While both have advantages and disadvantages, asynchronous is more widely used in administering assessments.
you can use async api calling in swift like this
private let serverCommunicationManager : ServerCommunicationManager = {
let instance = ServerCommunicationManager()
return instance
}()
var expectation:XCTestExpectation?
func testAsyncApiCall() {
expectation = self.expectation(description: "async request")
