> Oh, another note. In the code patch, I still need to run `syncdb` to
create potential new tables for the test apps' models. I don't think this
can really be avoided. And I don't think this is a problem either.
The problem isn't (just) one of code neatness - it's the execution time
for the tests. On my machine, the full Django's system test suite takes
about 5 minutes to execute for SQLite; almost 10 minutes to run for
Postgres. I haven't run the Oracle tests myself, but I've been lead to
believe that it goes from "go make yourself a cup of coffee" to "go make
yourself a 9-course degustation banquet". I'm going to be very picky about
introducing anything that has the potential to make this situation worse.
Syncdb isn't a no-op when there is nothing to do. Given that there is a
already a syncdb being called as part of the flush, my initial reaction is
that you shouldn't need another one. This may mean that there are some
other modifications that need to be made; I'm not opposed to making such
changes, if they're required.
If an additional call to syncdb is completely unavoidable, then so be it;
however, I'm not yet convinced that it is unavoidable. Feel free to
convince me :-)
