Chapter 9 test\_refreshData\_beginsRefreshing() fails on iOS 17  
iOS 17 changes the way UIRefreshControl behaves. Calling beginRefreshing fails if view is off screen, which is the case in the unit Test.

Therefore test\_refreshData\_beginsRefreshing will always fail.  
see below for typical warning received if view is offscreen and beginRefreshing is called.
