There are 2 sides to your question.
Can we unit test `launch`? Yes, we can. You simply run it within a `runBlocking` and `await` it’s completion (or termination as the case may be)

However the `UI` makes it difficult to unit test without bringing all the platform dependency with it. 
I would abstract this part out instead, to make it easy to swap with a non-platform dependent coroutineContext

thanks! i switched to `Unconfined` for tests. looks like it works now
