.. _Release Notes_1.0.0rc1_New Features:

New Features

- Added a new session scoped fixture ``make_httpserver`` which creates the

object for the ``httpserver`` fixture. It can be overridden to add further

customizations and it must yield a ``HTTPServer`` object - see

``pytest_plugin.py`` for an implementation. As this fixture is session

scoped, it will be called only once when the first test using httpserver is

started. This addition also deprecates the use of ``PluginHTTPServer`` which was

used in earlier versions as a way to customize server object creation.

``PluginHTTPServer`` can still be used but it may be subject to deprecation

in the future.

- Added a new session scoped fixture ``httpserver_ssl_context`` which provides

the SSL context for the server. By default it returns ``None``, so SSL is

not enabled, but can be overridden to return a valid ``ssl.SSLContext``

object which will be used for SSL connections. See test_ssl.py for example.

Upgrade Notes

- **Breaking change**: The scope of ``httpserver_listen_address`` fixture changed from **function**

to **session**. This is a requirement to implement the other features listed

in this release. See the `upgrade guide

<https://pytest-httpserver.readthedocs.io/en/latest/upgrade.html>`_ for the

details.
