Re: KeyError in UnitTests

Could it be because the test is passing 'Brasil' instead of 'BR'? I'm assuming 'BR' is a valid choice and 'Brasil' is invalid. That's why you're passing 'PR' instead of 'Paraná' in your data dictionary. If the field isn't a required field, then your form.is_valid() would be true, but there wou

throttling login attempts to avoid brute force attacks

This topic came up on the list a few months back, and I just wanted to share the solution I've put into place. Short version: 1. Ensure that my Web server (nginx) passes the user's real IP address in the request. 2. For POST requests to the login URL only (to avoid any performance side-effe
