I just checked this again. I changed the fixtures name to:
$ ls forum/fixtures forum_fixtures.json class UserProfileTestCases(TestCase): """These are tests to verify that refactoring of UserProfile is correct""" fixtures = ['forum_fixtures.json'] $ python manage.py test Creating test database 'default'... <<SNIP>> No fixtures found. I don't know why this is happening, but it is. :-( Bryan On May 27, 8:33 am, Karen Tracey <kmtra...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Wed, May 26, 2010 at 4:28 PM, Bryan <bryan.wheel...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I am using Django v1.2 > > > The fixture I defined "forum_fixtures.json" don't seem to be loading > > when I run tests. > > > from django.test.client import Client > > from django.test import TestCase > > from utils import * > > from forum.models import * > > from forum import auth > > from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType > > > class UserProfileTestCases(TestCase): > > """These are tests to verify that refactoring of UserProfile is > > correct""" > > fixtures = ['forum_fixtures.json'] ## @ forum/fixtures/ > > forum_fixtures.json > > def setUp(self): > > self.client = Client() > > if self.client.login(username='DickCheney', password='test'): > > print "client.login DickCheney successful"; > > else: > > print "client.login FAILED" > > > def test_set_new_email(self): > > orig_email = User.objects.get(username='DickCheney') > > response = self.client.post('changeemail', > > {u'email':'cockgobb...@nwo.gov <u%27email%27%3a%27cockgobb...@nwo.gov>'}) > > > self.assertNotEqual(User.objects.get(username='DickCheney').email, > > orig_email) > > > I ran the tests verbosely: > > python manage.py test --verbosity=2 > > > Django only looked for fixtures named 'initial_data'.
