What's the best way to tell (from regular code) if we're in a test? I have
added extra authentication steps (security questions) that would be
difficult to deal with in tests where you just want to run
self.client.login() or post to the login URL. I've noticed that several
third party modules, such as django-digest and django-bcrypt, also disable
parts of their functionality during testing like this:
from django.core import mail
if hasattr(mail, 'outbox'):
# we are under a test
else:
# not under a test
This works, but it's an undocumented side effect so I'm worried it might
change in a future version. What's the correct way to tell if we're in a
test?
Thanks,
Jody
