I'm trying to write a simple unit test for one of my models. I have
two models - Build and Project. A Project has multiple Builds. I want
to be able to create a build object, with an association to a Project.
However I seem unable to do this unless I actually save the Project
instance to the database - even if I have no intention of ever saving
the build. For example:
>>> project = Project()
>>> project.id = 4
>>> build = Build()
>>> build.project = project
>>> build.project
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<console>", line 1, in ?
File "c:\tools\python\python2.4\lib\site-packages\Django-0.95-py2.4.egg\django
\db\models\fields\related.py", line 169, in __get__
rel_obj = self.field.rel.to._default_manager.get(**params)
File "c:\tools\python\python2.4\lib\site-packages\Django-0.95-py2.4.egg\django
\db\models\manager.py", line 67, in get
return self.get_query_set().get(*args, **kwargs)
File "c:\tools\python\python2.4\lib\site-packages\Django-0.95-py2.4.egg\django
\db\models\query.py", line 213, in get
raise self.model.DoesNotExist, "%s matching query does not exist." % self.mo
del._meta.object_name
DoesNotExist: Project matching query does not exist.
In other persistence layers - Hibernate comes to mind - if I directly
create the association as I have done here, I can query that
association before persistence. If I have to create lots of fake data,
and always hit the database it is going to add significant bloat to my
unit testing.
Any thoughts?
