In anticipation of the `AsyncMock` that will be [introduced in Python 3.8](https://docs.python.org/3.9/whatsnew/3.8.html#unittest), we have added an `AsyncMock` helper to [`helpers.py`](/tests/helpers.py). Do note that this drop-in replacement only implements an asynchronous `__call__` method, not the additional assertions that will come with the new `AsyncMock` type in Python 3.8. +By default, the `unittest.mock.Mock` and `unittest.mock.MagicMock` classes cannot mock coroutines, since the `__call__` method they provide is synchronous.
