I have a view that can redirect to /admin/common/region/add/ but that url (being an admin page) should require login (right?). My test that logs-in works as expected.
However, when I try to do an assertRedirects() without logging in first, the assertRedirects() doesn't seem to follow through to the login URL. def test_no_region_not_logged_in(self): # if we have no regions and attempt to visit # the "home" page, the site has been misconfigured so # it should redirect to the admin page (via login) # where a new region can be created. url = reverse("home") # the URL that # should redirect to /admin/common/region/add/ # via the login page # self.client is instantiated in setUp() response = self.client.get(url, follow=True) # print repr(response.redirect_chain) # the redirect_chain contains just has one entry # rather than the two I'd expect add_region_url = reverse("admin:common_region_add") login_url = reverse("login") expected_url = "%s?next=%s" % ( login_url, quote(add_region_url) ) self.assertRedirects(response, expected_url) However my test fails with: AssertionError: Response redirected to 'http://testserver/admin/common/region/add/', expected 'http://testserver/accounts/login/?next=/admin/common/region/add/' Where am I going wrong? Do admin pages not have @login_required as I expect? Does the test-client not fully follow when follow=True? For what it's worth, this is Django 1.6.7 (I need something pre-1.7 because my hosting-provider's target environment only has Python 2.6, not 2.7) Thanks for any hints you might be able to offer. -tkc -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
