safir.testing.uvicorn Module

Utiility functions for managing an external Uvicorn test process.

Normally, ASGI apps are tested via the built-in support in HTTPX for running an ASGI app directly.

This module provides utility functions to aid with that test setup.

Spawn an ASGI app as a separate Uvicorn process.
