Test Client

Ravyn offers an extension of the Lilya TestClient called RavynTestClient as well as a create_client that can be used for context testing.

from ravyn.testclient import RavynTestClient

ravyn.testclient.RavynTestClient

RavynTestClient(
    app,
    base_url="http://testserver",
    raise_server_exceptions=True,
    root_path="",
    backend="asyncio",
    backend_options=None,
    cookies=None,
    headers=None,
