Assuming that the long function you have embedded inside your dictionary
simply generates a list i.e.
cloned_build.groupings.get(group=group1)
.field_values
.exclude(template=approvable_template)
.values_list('id', flat=True)[:]
results in:
[1,2,3]
Then some examples of possible tests:
expected_json = {
'status': 'ok',
'invalid-fields': {},
'updated-fields': [1,2,3]
}
actual_json = {
'invalid-fields': {},
'status': 'ok',
'updated-fields': [1,2,3]
}
invalid_json = {
'invalid-fields': {},
'status': 'ok',
'updated-fields': [2,3]
}
assert cmp(expected_json, actual_json) == 0 # same
assert cmp(expected_json, invalid_json) == -1 # different
Hope this helps. For more background & discussion, see:
