Comment (by jonathan...@gmail.com):
A simple hack that seems to work for this is to modify the action of
setup_databases in django/test/simple.py
def setup_databases(self, **kwargs):
from django.db import connections
old_names = []
mirrors = []
for alias in connections:
connection = connections[alias]
+ # If the alias name is contained within this setting,
+ # just skip round the loop.
+ # This causes all tests to occur against the aliased
+ # connection, and not create a test db.
+ try:
+ if alias in settings.RUN_TESTS_ON_LIVE_DB:
+ continue
+ except:
+ pass
# If the database is a test mirror, redirect it's connection
# instead of creating a test database.
if connection.settings_dict['TEST_MIRROR']:
mirrors.append((alias, connection))
mirror_alias = connection.settings_dict['TEST_MIRROR']
connections._connections[alias] =
connections[mirror_alias]
else:
old_names.append((connection,
connection.settings_dict['NAME']))
connection.creation.create_test_db(self.verbosity,
autoclobber=not self.interactive)
return old_names, mirrors
and then place the names of the connections inside the variable in your
settings.py:
RUN_TESTS_ON_LIVE_DB = ['dbname',]
This seems to force the tests to run against the live database, write
operations will simply fail due to permissions and one no longer needs
complex alternative db setups.
Hack..
