As I said in my last email, the relevant setting is TEST_NAME. NAME is
your normal database name. TEST_NAME is the name of the database
during testing.
Yes, it defaults to ':memory:' for SQLite. And yes, the test database
will be rolled back (if you're using a django.test.TestCase. However,
if you're not using a django.test.TestCase, or you break out of the
test (e.g.,using sys.exit()), the database will exist on disk.
