Andrew Svetlov added the comment: Please keep in mind: not only asyncio can be used to execute async/await code. For example, trio has completely different implementation but utilizes async functions as well. Probably we need to customize it, maybe by inheriting AsyncioDocTestRunner from

[issue37006] Add top level await statement support for doctest

New submission from Karthikeyan Singaravelan : Since issue34616 is merged that allows using compile flags to support top level await statements I think it would be good to add support for top level await in doctest. This would help in concise examples in docs where await statements need to
