"""This fixture overrides the live_server fixture provided by pytest_django.
live_server allows us to create a running version of the

cgrebs:
From what I found out was that the `live_server` fixture (in our setup,
couldn't reproduce in a fresh project) apparently starts up the
LiveServerThread way too early before pytest-django configures the
settings correctly.
That resulted in the LiveServerThread querying the 'default' database
which was different from what the other fixtures and tests were using
which resulted in the problem that the just created api keys could not
be found in the api methods in the live-server.
I worked around that by implementing the live_server fixture ourselfs
and make it function-scoped so that it now runs in a proper
database-transaction.
This is a HACK and I'll work on a more permanent solution but for now
it should be enough to continue working on porting tests...
Also investigating if there are any problems in pytest-django directly.
