Django Tutorial 4 : Django Testing

In this part of my Django tutorial series we'll focus on Generic Views and Automated Testing. Through testing we can quickly check how are site is operating after each change. You can also simulate how the site will interact with a user depending upon an unlimited number of randomized inputs. With a little work up front you will save yourself from numerous future headaches.

Simply great, always when I search for some subject on youtube and I find one of your videos talking about it, I can relief because I know I will understand and get the job done!

Can't wait about you doing a pentesting serie, you explain things so well!

As more of a C++ guy, I always like to watch your videos on different languages just to see how different the syntax is and everything, pretty interesting :P

Very nice!. Make more videos. I want this series to be as detailed as possible!!!
Make 50 videos on

Didn't understand how you could use "create_question" function from one class in another. The "def create_question" is indented inside the first test class, isn't it?
Another thing a would say(but it's not very important) is that you should use 'string {}'.format() instead % format string. Again, this is not very important but it's python and it's elegant.
Nice tutorial Derek, thanks a lot.

Thank you so much for awesome Django series :)

for thoes using path instead of url in urlpatterns should add "pk_url_kwarg = 'question_id'
" to DetailView and ResultView class in views.py

I hit a wall, when it comes to running my test.py, in terminal, in PyCharm, using a windows machine.
When I enter: python manage.py test polls
I receive, to much of an error to post here, then the following towards the end:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sampsite.polls'


I didn't get any errors, when I ran things in shell, during that portion of the tut.
Any insights are welcome.

The examples for testing were a little complex, I felt overwhelm though i am not totally new to python

[vixellar]

Well hello


Eagerly waiting for your c++ tutorial

[Ak-yztd]

Nice video. How can you update index view such that, Questions with not more than 1 choices can be avoided from display. How will you test it?

Hi Derek,

How can a deploy the local django project to a production server and can join many different apps like poll into one site?

Thanks for your videos, they are very helpful.

Hi Derek,
I am fun of Python and MongoDB as well (I saw your tutorials about these as well),
and now I thought Django would be a great webframe where I can use both.

I'd like to ask can you show us a video how Django can use Mongodb? CRUD template would be great

Sorry for the question but I couldn't find a detailed tutorial where django connected to mongodb :(

Thanks,
Mark

Awesome! Thanks Derek! How many more Django videos do you have planned and what are you working on after? :) Would you be able to make a video covering Verilog as well?

Hello everyone with the create_question errors,
to fix the error copy the create_question method and place it before the classes start(where you import stuff)

That should fix the errors if not check for typos

[rashmitpankhania]

hey self.pub_date will always goin to be smaller than exp then how it is going to give true i dont understand

[fatihcakmak]

Hey Derek, been watching you for a very long time. Can you please make a video tutorial on creating a campaign in Roll20? There are couple tutorials online but no one explains stuff as fast and clear as you do.

[Drnc]

Unrelated question: Do you have a link for some descrete mathematics lectures you recommend?

Thanks. Love your videos.

Hi Derek. Have you any plans to make more Go tutorials?
