I have a bunch of unit tests that do file upload too. E.g.:
def testBasics(self):
testpage = self.test_report.page_set.create(slug="testpage", title =
"Test Page")
self.assertEquals(testpage.report, self.test_report)
testpage.page_spec.save("testgraphspec.json",
ContentFile(TESTSPECSTR))
graphspecs = testpage.graphspecs()
assert "age1" in graphspecs.keys()
self.assertEquals(graphspecs["age1"].slug, "age1")
I have no idea if this is the best way or not, but it seems that the django
unit test magic does the right thing here, and the file that is created upon
upload gets cleaned up afterward, without any need to change the MEDIA
location or do other painful things.
Are you using django's "manage.py test" to run the tests?
