Comment:

 They really are two different things, used for two different purposes. I'm
 going to close this again; if you feel strongly, please take it to django-
 dev for discussion.

Comment:

 A problem persists. The docs start by samples with `from django.utils
 import unittest`, but the example `tests.py` created by `python manage.py
 startapp` says `from django.test import TestCase`. That might confuse
 people starting to write tests. The docs do mention something about the
 difference,
 
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/testing/overview/#django.test.TestCase.client
 but only after a few pagefuls].

Comment:

 It's a different thing. `django.utils.unittest` is a copy of the
 `unittest2` package for Python < 2.7. `django.test` holds Django's special
 testsuite helpers.

 In most cases you don't need to import anything from
 `django.utils.unittest`. It's just some kind of warning to prevent you
 from using `import unittest`.

Comment:

 Hmm, OK, I read this a little more carefully and see what had me going.
 The docs say:

 from django.utils import unittest

 but the sample tests.py file says:

 from django.test import TestCase

 this is a little confusing.  It would be more obvious if the sample and
 the docs did it the same way.

 At http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/topics/testing/#writing-unit-
 tests, it says:

 from django.utils import unittest

 It should import from django.test, no?  It's wrong in the release notes
 too.  The sample tests.py file gets it right.
