Hello, I'm using Django 1.4 and was really excited to learn about the new testing features. I am totally new to this. I seem to have hit a bump in the road. If I overcome this I'm hopeful it will be smooth sailing and I will experience some great testing goodness. I've been mucking around with this all morning and I can't seem to get the selenium Firefox webdriver to navigate to the given URL.
I have read the docs: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/topics/testing/#django.test.LiveServerTestCase and read this tutorial http://www.tdd-django-tutorial.com/tutorial/1/ and tried to run the test code that they suggest. When I run the very simple test: from django.test import LiveServerTestCase from selenium import webdriver class MySeleniumTests(LiveServerTestCase): fixtures = ['lookups_security.json'] def setUp(self): self.browser = webdriver.Firefox() def tearDown(self): self.browser.quit() def test_login(self): # Gertrude opens her web browser, and goes to the admin page self.browser.get(self.live_server_url + '/admin/login/') # She sees the familiar 'Django administration' heading body = self.browser.find_element_by_tag_name('body') self.assertIn('CISSIMP Admin', body.text) A blank Firefox browser pops up, sits there and then closes. The test output is: (sitar_env2) C:\virtual_env\sitar_env2\cissimp>python manage.py test --liveserver=localhost:8082 sitar Creating test database for alias 'default'... E ====================================================================== ERROR: test_login (sitar.tests.MySeleniumTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\virtual_env\sitar_env2\cissimp\sitar\tests.py", line 54, in test_login self.assertIn('CISSIMP Admin', body.text) AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'text' ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 1 test in 22.546s FAILED (errors=1) Destroying test database for alias 'default'... It seems obvious that the browser is not navigating to the URL I want so the code is trying to get a reference to an non-existent body tag. Can anyone see what I am doing wrong?
