[![CI Status](https://github.com/baldwindavid/ex_waiter/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/baldwindavid/ex_waiter/actions/workflows/ci.yml)

Handy functions for polling and receiving.

- Polling: `poll/1` and `poll!/1` periodically check that a given
  condition has been met.
- Receiving: `receive_next/2` and `receive_next!/2` return the next message/s
  from the mailbox within a timeout.
