Hi, Ticket: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/25328
I made a proposal to include a LiveServerTestCase, which runs an HTTPS server instead of standard HTTP server. I've been asked to get more feedback for this idea. If my refactor is merged I can release the test case as a separate app. But including it in Django itself would encourage to write HTTPS-only applications and to write Selenium tests for them. I've seen recent moves to encourage various security "good habits" into Django, like integrating "security header" in 1.8 (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ref/middleware/#module-django.middleware.security). Let's Enrypt (which should be released in November) will futher ease enabling HTTPS. Testing HTTPS-enabled site in Django should be just as easy as testing a standard HTTP site. Do you think it's a good idea to add it to Django core? Or should I release it as as a separate app? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
