How to disable aiohttp.web applications

Question

Given the aiohttp.web application with views like this:

async def hello(request):
    return web.Response(body=b"Hello, world")

I am trying to figure out how to test them correctly.

I usually use Django as my own test client when writing Django applications and looked for something similar for aiohttp.web. I am not sure if this is the right approach or not.

TL DR: How to simulate a request in an application aiohttp.webin unittest?
