Example with dockerfile

docker build -t check-pytest .
docker run -it check-pytest

I'm not sure but it's looks like python wait for coroutine ending in wrong event loop.

pytest itself doesn't deal with threading or asyncio, and as you can see, the pytest main thread hangs while calling into starlette.testclient / httpx.client / anyio - so this doesn't seem like a pytest issue. I'm converting this into a Q&A discussion, maybe someone has an idea what's going on.
