Cannot log after tests are done. did you forget to wait for something async in your test?

There are several reasons why you may be experiencing difficulty in logging after running tests. One possibility is that you forgot to wait for an asynchronous operation to complete before attempting to log in. When working with asynchronous code, it’s important to ensure that you properly handle the timing of each operation.

Let’s take an example to illustrate this. Suppose you have a test case that involves making an API call to authenticate a user and then logging in. If you forget to await the API call, your test will continue executing before the authentication is complete, resulting in a failed login attempt.

    test('Login test', async () => {
      const user = await authenticateUser(); // Asynchronous API call to authenticate user
      await login(user); // Asynchronous login operation

      // Perform assertions or further actions
      // ...
    });
  

In the example above, both authenticateUser() and login() are asynchronous functions. The await keyword is used to wait for the completion of each operation before proceeding. This ensures that the authentication process finishes before attempting to log in.

By properly awaiting asynchronous functions, you can avoid potential race conditions and ensure the necessary dependencies are resolved before proceeding with the next steps in your tests. Always make sure to check for any missing await keywords in your test code that could cause issues with asynchronous operations.
