### `hosted_api_server` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/prefect/testing/fixtures.py#L68" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python  theme={null}
hosted_api_server(unused_tcp_port_factory: Callable[[], int], test_database_connection_url: Optional[str]) -> AsyncGenerator[str, None]
```

Runs an instance of the Prefect API server in a subprocess instead of the using the
ephemeral application.

Uses the same database as the rest of the tests.

### `use_hosted_api_server` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/prefect/testing/fixtures.py#L166" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python  theme={null}
use_hosted_api_server(hosted_api_server: str) -> Generator[str, None, None]
```

Sets `PREFECT_API_URL` to the test session's hosted API endpoint.

### `disable_hosted_api_server` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/prefect/testing/fixtures.py#L180" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python  theme={null}
disable_hosted_api_server() -> Generator[None, None, None]
```

Disables the hosted API server by setting `PREFECT_API_URL` to `None`.

### `enable_ephemeral_server` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/prefect/testing/fixtures.py#L193" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python  theme={null}
enable_ephemeral_server(disable_hosted_api_server: None) -> Generator[None, None, None]
```

Enables the ephemeral server by setting `PREFECT_SERVER_ALLOW_EPHEMERAL_MODE` to `True`.

### `mock_anyio_sleep` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/prefect/testing/fixtures.py#L210" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python  theme={null}
mock_anyio_sleep(monkeypatch: pytest.MonkeyPatch) -> Generator[Callable[[float], None], None, None]
```

Mock sleep used to not actually sleep but to set the current time to now + sleep
delay seconds while still yielding to other tasks in the event loop.

Provides "assert\_sleeps\_for" context manager which asserts a sleep time occurred
within the context while using the actual runtime of the context as a tolerance.
