First part of two showing examples from real life where TaskCompletionSource has proven useful. In this part: mocking Tasks for testing.

Interesting, so the TaskCompletionSource is used to mock behavior that you don't want to test, correct?

Yes, that is correct. Anything returning a Task can be rather easily mocked using this approach.
