testing advice sought - external callback/hook

[Jonathan Vanasco]

I'm open-sourcing a pyramid-based client for the LetsEncrypt https certificate service, and have run into an issue with the tests.

All the tests are written using webtest, specifically TestApp.

On one specific test, after stepping through a form, I need to receive a web request from the LetsEncrypt test server.

Does anyone know if it is possible to somehow bind an existing TestApp() instance to a port, or if there is a way to leverage webtest.http with an existing TestApp instance?

Here is an example how to create a test web server for WSGI app (Pyramid):

https://github.com/websauna/websauna/blob/master/websauna/tests/webserver.py#L14

Note that it works with Pyramid WSGI app, not TestApp. TestApp itself wraps the underlying WSGI app.

thanks so much!  this worked based on your example!:

    def tearDown(self):

        if self.testapp_http is not None:

            self.testapp_http.shutdown()

    def test_foo(self):

        self.testapp_http = StopableWSGIServer.create(self.testapp.app)

        self.testapp_http.wait()

        res = self.testapp.get('/foo')
