Thanks for sharing, Mike. It's great using tests on this way. 
I've being used versioning for a long time and that way it is easy to apply and

revert the changes too.

but the tests were all behaving properly.


I dug deeper and saw Django actually create the table in the test database!

From that point I realised I could play around with the field structure until 
I was happy. The test database gets deleted after every run.


When I'm finished I can syncdb and lock it in.

Delicious!
