#22254: Testing documentation doesn't make it clear that django.setup() needs to be called with setup_test_environment --------------------------------+------------------------- Reporter: peter.landry@… | Owner: nobody Type: Uncategorized | Status: new Component: Documentation | Version: 1.7-alpha-2 Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: Unreviewed | Has patch: 0 Easy pickings: 0 | UI/UX: 0 --------------------------------+------------------------- https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/testing/advanced/#running- tests-outside-the-test-runner
It's not specific to testing, but it seems that we should mention the necessity of calling `django.setup()` in the directions for running tests outside of `manage.py`. I've submitted a pull request with a simple documentation change: https://github.com/django/django/pull/2419 This may require some more discussion, though. As mjtamlyn points out, another solution could be to include `django.setup()` in `setup_test_environment()`. The call to `django.setup()` could also be moved into the example for using `setup_test_environment()` rather than a warning in its own. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/22254> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
