Need Help Testing Callback Style Code with Coroutines

  Library support for Kotlin coroutines

  

I've been banging my head against this problem for more time than I care to admit, so putting this out there to hopefully get some more ideas. I am trying to create an integration test that involves pre-populating data in my local Firestore emulator, and then calling a method to retrieve a subset of results. Firestore uses callback listeners to handle logic relating to the results of these operations. However, there is a Kotlin coroutines package: kotlinx-coroutines-play-services, that provides an extension function to ".await()" for a result, rather than rely on the callback flow.

  A repository that showcases main thread blocking issues with .await() in tests

My problem comes into play when I am writing the tests. When the tests run, .await() never finishes, so my tests hang indefinitely. I created a small repo to showcase this problem: https://github.com/pmoons/TaskAwaitIssue
