Django usually creates the inputs the same way, so what I do in my tests is to first dump the content of the response body on the screen and then copy the input statement from there. What you probably need is '<input name="username"', because it doesn't matter for your test if the html tag is closed. So you should be fine with: self.assertContains(response, '<input name="username"') -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
