I have an app that I'm starting to write tests for. The app uses
south for all migrations and mysql for the db.
I wrote some tests and also created an initial_data.json fixture to
provide some default data. If I run "python manage.py test", the
database is created via sqlite, the tests are run, and then the report
is spit out. This works fine.
However, I want to automate this where I can programmatically run
tests, find the failures, and do some custom logging/saving of the
failures. How do I run the tests in python?
I've tried a few variations of the below code, but the problem is the
database. When I run the "python manage.py test" command, it
automatically uses sqlite3 as the backend, creates the database, and
uses it for all tests. However, when I run my own tests, it uses the
mysql backend. If I force it to use sqlite, is has problems with the
fixtures because the migrations are not run before installing the
fixtures.
How do I run tests manually using the same database setup that happens
when using the manage.py test command?
My code:
import my_application.settings
# NOTE: Use this to force the testing database to use the sqlite
engine.
my_application.settings.DATABASE_ENGINE = 'sqlite3'
from django.core.management import setup_environ
setup_environ(my_application.settings)
from django.conf import settings
from django.test.utils import get_runner
verbosity = 1
interactive = False
failfast = True
TestRunner = get_runner(settings)
test_labels = ()
test_runner = TestRunner(verbosity=verbosity,
interactive=interactive, failfast=failfast)
failures = test_runner.run_tests(test_labels)
And this is the error I get:
calling TestRunner.run_tests()
verbosity: 1
interactive: False
failfast: True
test_labels: ()
