* test: move the unit half of 126 mixed legacy files into tests/unit * test: restore litellm globals that moved tests set * test: finalize migration test cleanup * test: restore original bodies of moved legacy tests The move into tests/unit had rewritten 612 test bodies, and some of the rewrites dropped assertions. Each moved test now carries its original body from the legacy file, with only the imports, helpers, fake provider credentials and monkeypatched env it needs to run under tests/unit test_timeout_streaming goes back to tests/local_testing because it needs the fake OpenAI endpoint server. The image payload fixture moves with its only user, and two tests that leaked global state (a registered model cost entry and queued logging tasks) are now isolated * test: drop module imports shadowed by restored local imports * test: assert on LiteLLM output in no-assertion moved tests and isolate leaks Twenty no-assertion candidates get one assertion on the value LiteLLM returns, with the original lines unchanged. Four tests go back to their legacy files because they only check types or imports, write into the working directory, or cannot assert without a body change Two moved tests leaked globals into later tests in the same worker, so monkeypatch fixtures now restore the retry-after header parser and the end user cost tracking flags * test: drain queued logging tasks before the Phoenix span test The moved Phoenix test counted spans from logging tasks that earlier tests had queued, so the drain fixture moves to tests/unit/conftest.py and both it and the Datadog batch test use it. test_factory_function goes back to its legacy file because its returned wrapper calls the real Assistants API and cannot be asserted on without a body change --------- Co-authored-by: yuneng <yuneng@berri.ai> |

OpenAI Realtime Handler Tests
Important Context: additional_headers vs extra_headers
Background
There was confusion about the correct parameter name for passing headers to websockets.connect(). This README documents the resolution for future maintainers.
Timeline of Changes
- Dec 5, 2025 - Changed
extra_headers→additional_headers(commit8db7f1b8e4) - Dec 18, 2025 - Changed
extra_headers→additional_headersagain (PR #17950, commit9f88d61d10) - Jan 15, 2026 - Upgraded
websocketsfrom 13.1.0 → 15.0.1 (commita3cf178e24, Issue #19089)
The Issue & Resolution
The websockets library changed its API between versions:
- websockets < 14.0: Used
extra_headersparameter ✅ - websockets >= 14.0: Uses
additional_headersparameter ✅
LiteLLM uses websockets 15.0.1 (per uv.lock), which requires additional_headers.
Verification
You can verify the correct parameter name:
uv run python -c "import websockets; import inspect; print(inspect.signature(websockets.connect))"
This shows: additional_headers: 'HeadersLike | None' = None for websockets 15.0.1.
Current Implementation (Correct)
# ✅ Correct for websockets 15.0.1+
await websockets.connect(url, additional_headers={
"Authorization": f"Bearer {api_key}",
"OpenAI-Beta": "realtime=v1"
})
Impact
This is NOT just a test fix - this was a critical bug that affected all realtime APIs:
- OpenAI realtime
- Azure realtime
- xAI realtime
- Any pass-through realtime connections
Using extra_headers with websockets 15.0.1 resulted in:
TypeError: connect() got an unexpected keyword argument 'extra_headers'
For Future Maintainers
If you see test failures related to header parameters:
-
Check installed websockets version:
uv run python -c "import websockets; print(websockets.__version__)" -
Check
uv.lockfor the pinned version -
Verify the correct parameter:
- websockets >= 14.0: use
additional_headers - websockets < 14.0: use
extra_headers
- websockets >= 14.0: use
-
Ensure consistency across all files:
litellm/llms/openai/realtime/handler.pylitellm/llms/azure/realtime/handler.pylitellm/llms/custom_httpx/llm_http_handler.pylitellm/realtime_api/main.pylitellm/proxy/pass_through_endpoints/pass_through_endpoints.py
Current Status (Feb 2026):
- ✅ websockets version: 15.0.1
- ✅ Correct parameter:
additional_headers - ✅ All handlers updated and working
