def test_client(self, use_cookies=True, **kwargs):
"""Creates a test client for this application. For information
about unit testing head over to :ref:`testing`.
Note that if you are testing for assertions or exceptions in your
application code, you must set ``app.testing = True`` in order for the
exceptions to propagate to the test client. Otherwise, the exception
will be handled by the application (not visible to the test client) and
the only indication of an AssertionError or other exception will be a
500 status code response to the test client. See the :attr:`testing`
attribute. For example::
app.testing = True
client = app.test_client()
The test client can be used in a ``with`` block to defer the closing down
of the context until the end of the ``with`` block. This is useful if
you want to access the context locals for testing::
