This is a regression from 1.6.5, where I inherited the `fixtures`
attribute from a mixin class. In 1.7c1, Django acts like the attribute
isn't there.
== How to reproduce ==
{{{
from django.test import TestCase
class Mixin(object):
fixtures = ('my_fixture',)
class Base(TestCase):
pass
class FixtureTest(Base, Mixin):
def test_dummy(self):
pass
}}}
In 1.7c1, running this test gives no warning that the `my_fixture` doesn't
exist, which shows that Django doesn't try to load it.
== Workaround ==
Swapping the order of the base classes like this gives the expected
result:
{{{
class FixtureTest(Mixin, Base):
}}}
Now running the test, Django tries to load the fixture, as it should:
{{{
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-
packages/django/core/management/commands/loaddata.py:225: UserWarning: No
fixture named 'my_fixture' found.
warnings.warn("No fixture named '%s' found." % fixture_name)
}}}
