Coroutines do allow for a comfortable programming style that many devs are familiar with. Worth trying out testing the Coroutine way simple smile. Have done a recent commit (https://github.com/napperley/vertx-kotlintest/commit/6a0390dce02720623b89f0115f75d64edbb9ad13) which should hopefully provide a clear idea of what I was trying to achieve with async testing, even though I have failed to pull it off 🙁.
