## Server Machine and Server Program

There's a small detail about names to keep in mind. 💡

Thanks to <a href="https://www.starlette.io/testclient/" class="external-link" target="_blank">Starlette</a>, testing **FastAPI** applications is easy and enjoyable.

It is based on <a href="https://www.python-httpx.org" class="external-link" target="_blank">HTTPX</a>, which in turn is designed based on Requests, so it's very familiar and intuitive.

With it, you can use <a href="https://docs.pytest.org/" class="external-link" target="_blank">pytest</a> directly with **FastAPI**.

# Using Dataclasses

FastAPI is built on top of **Pydantic**, and I have been showing you how to use Pydantic models to declare requests and responses.

But FastAPI also supports using <a href="https://docs.python.org/3/library/dataclasses.html" class="external-link" target="_blank">`dataclasses`</a> the same way:

```Python hl_lines="1  7-12  19-20"
{!../../../docs_src/dataclasses/tutorial001.py!}
```

        if (
            key in main_dict
            and isinstance(main_dict[key], dict)
            and isinstance(value, dict)
        ):
            deep_dict_update(main_dict[key], value)
        elif (
            key in main_dict
            and isinstance(main_dict[key], list)
            and isinstance(update_dict[key], list)
        ):

            dependency.

            The term "scope" comes from the OAuth2 specification, it seems to be
            intentionaly vague and interpretable. It normally refers to permissions,
            in cases to roles.

            These scopes are integrated with OpenAPI (and the API docs at `/docs`).
            So they are visible in the OpenAPI specification.
            )
            """
        ),

The term "schema" might also refer to the shape of some data, like a JSON content.

In that case, it would mean the JSON attributes, and data types they have, etc.

#### OpenAPI and JSON Schema

OpenAPI defines an API schema for your API. And that schema includes definitions (or "schemas") of the data sent and received by your API using **JSON Schema**, the standard for JSON data schemas.

#### Check the `openapi.json`

You can declare a parameter in a *path operation function* or dependency to be of type `Request` and then you can access the raw request object directly, without any validation, etc.

You can import it directly from `fastapi`:

```python
from fastapi import Request
```

        pattern: Optional[str] = None,

        strict: Union[bool, None] = _Unset,
        multiple_of: Union[float, None] = _Unset,

# Background Tasks - `BackgroundTasks`

You can declare a parameter in a *path operation function* or dependency function with the type `BackgroundTasks`, and then you can use it to schedule the execution of background tasks after the response is sent.

You can import it directly from `fastapi`:

```python
from fastapi import BackgroundTasks
```

* Hỗ trợ **WebSocket**.
* In-process background tasks.
* Startup and shutdown events.
* Client cho kiểm thử xây dựng trên HTTPX.
* **CORS**, GZip, Static Files, Streaming responses.
* Hỗ trợ **Session and Cookie**.
* 100% test coverage.
* 100% type annotated codebase.
