===== Streaming Responses
There are no options built into Spring MVC Test for container-less testing of streaming
responses. Applications that make use of
<<web.adoc#mvc-ann-async-http-streaming,Spring MVC streaming>> options can use the

project Reactor that allows declaring expectations on a stream of data.
