The biggest difference with django-nose is the test isolation. In nosedjango, by default, every single test nose finds is wrapped inside a transaction when run. This guarantees that every test has a vanilla database (as created by syncdb) at the start of the test and that after any test, successful or not, the database is rollbacked back to the vanilla condition. Another key difference is how the tests are run: django-nose requires the TEST_RUNNER to be set and the application added to INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py. Nosedjango can just be run on commandline using "nosetests --with-django", no additional setup is needed. One of pros is that you can put your tests outside your main project tree so that they don't get accidentally included if you happen to package your app with distutils or setuptools/distribute. Con side is that the ./ manage.py test -machinery no longer works. So this one is more or less a matter of taste. - Jyrki -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
