How to test components in Yii2?

Question

Yii

Good evening. Can you please tell me how to test components in Yii2? Indeed, when testing, the \Yii::$app property is not defined.
Are you using \Yii::$container->get() ?

Well, since no one answers..
See how it's done in https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2-codeception/blob/m...
Specifically, the mockApplication method. It allows you to create a new application instance with a given config (including components) before each test. It is strange that you did not use it, because it is included in the standard setup for tests in yii2-basic and yii2-advanced templates.
