 # Changelog
 
+## 2025-05-29 - 19.5.2 - fix(test)
+Fix ACME challenge route creation and HTTP request parsing in tests
+
+- Replaced the legacy ACME email 'test@example.com' with 'test@acmetest.local' to avoid forbidden domain issues.
+- Mocked the CertificateManager in test/test.acme-route-creation to simulate immediate ACME challenge route addition.
+- Adjusted updateRoutes callback to capture and verify challenge route creation.
+- Enhanced the HTTP request parsing in socket handler by capturing and asserting parsed request details (method, path, headers).
+
 ## 2025-05-29 - 19.5.1 - fix(socket-handler)
 Fix socket handler race condition by differentiating between async and sync handlers. Now, async socket handlers complete their setup before initial data is emitted, ensuring that no data is lost. Documentation and tests have been updated to reflect this change.
