Caddy is the first and only web server to use HTTPS automatically and by default
I'm always a bit bothered by them saying they are the "only" web server that can do this. First you can also just configure it in a way where it will not use HTTPS (e.g. if you provide an IP:port instead of a hostname). And if you do require specific configuration to enable HTTPS and automatically get certificates via ACME, then lots of other web servers can do this too. Even my own web server can do it: https://github.com/pfirsich/htcpp (see https://github.com/pfirsich/htcpp/blob/main/configs/acme.jom... for an admittedly much more complicated config).

Introducing co-uring-http, an HTTP server built on C++ 20 coroutines and `io_uring`
Cool stuff! I am currently converting my io_uring based HTTP server (https://github.com/pfirsich/htcpp) to using coroutines as well, so this is cool to see. (WIP library here: https://github.com/pfirsich/aiopp)

http sever testing tool
I recently built an HTTP(S) server myself (https://github.com/pfirsich/htcpp) and did not find something like you are looking for. If you also don't find anything (but please link it if you do!), consider just running your server on a publicly accessible VM and listening on port 80 and you will be bombarded by various people trying to break in. Most of it will be useless, like checks for unprotected phpMyAdmin and stuff like that, but I did find a few bugs that way. I even found some TLS issues (of course listen on 443 instead).

Who is using C++ for web development?
I am serving static HTML from a web server, which I have built myself using C++: https://github.com/pfirsich/htcpp. I am not sure if that even counts, but I'm kind of proud of it. And I use it to serve my personal website: https://theshoemaker.de.
