there has been a few things that i feel have been holding back from making my code structure/process better. i was hoping someone could help me on some of these questions.
first: ==== How does one develop tests for django web apps? im having trouble writing tests. i understand there are view tests, but those are so overly complex to write. i was just wondering how other people approach it, and if anyone can point me to some open source application that uses tests properly. i would love to give test driven development a try, but right now, i feel that my code is too bound to code in my view, which im having trouble making unit tests for. (id love to see a django project somewhere that was test driven) second: ==== i have a model object, that "has many" of another object, which "has many" of another object. (relations) i want to display each in groups based on their parents which is better design? pass the top most parent to the template, and have the template go through each of the top obect then each of the next object =or= have the view do it and pass it to the template third: ==== in the same situation, where i have several relations i want to save data, (say i was unable to use model forms) my forms allow input of the parent, and each of the children model objects. is it better to put my save logic in the new form object, or in the model? if you say new form object, is there ever a time that you would put all of your saving logic in the model instead of the form? fourth: ==== i never understood this, why do people do somevar = "blah blah %s" % anothervar instead of "blah bla" + anothervar ? fifth: ==== in my models, a model object is only aware of the objects above it, and not below it. in C, i remember i just declared all functions, with no body to it, at the top of the file then all functions were aware of all functions. how do i do this in python? thanks a ton for your input =) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
