<p>As websites grow they become harder to test manually. Not only is there more to test, but, as interactions between components become more complex, a small change in one area can impact other areas, so more changes will be required to ensure everything keeps working and errors are not introduced as more changes are made. One way to mitigate these problems is to write automated tests, which can easily and reliably be run every time you make a change. This tutorial shows how to automate <em>unit testing</em> of your website using Django's test framework.</p> <figure class="table-container"> <table> <tbody> <tr> <th scope="row">Prerequisites:</th> <td>Complete all previous tutorial topics, including <a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Django/Forms?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB">Django Tutorial Part 9: Working with forms</a>.</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Objective:</th> <td>To understand how to write unit tests for Django-based websites.</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </figure> </div> <section aria-labelledby="overview"> <h2 id="overview"><a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Django/Testing?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB#overview">Overview</a></h2> <div class="section-content"> <p>The <a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Django/Tutorial_local_library_website?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB">Local Library</a> currently has pages to display lists of all books and authors, detail views for <code>Book</code> and <code>Author</code> items, a page to renew <code>BookInstance</code> items, and pages to create, update, and delete <code>Author</code> items (and <code>Book</code> records too, if you completed the <em>challenge</em> in the <a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Django/Forms?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB">forms tutorial</a>). Even with this relatively small site, manually navigating to each page and <em>superficially</em> checking that everything works as expected can take several minutes. As we make changes and grow the site, the time required to manually check that everything works "properly" will only grow. If we were to continue as we are, eventually we'd be spending most of our time testing, and very little time improving our code.</p> <p>Automated tests can really help with this problem! The obvious benefits are that they can be run much faster than manual tests, can test to a much lower level of detail, and test exactly the same functionality every time (human testers are nowhere near as reliable!) Because they are fast, automated tests can be executed more regularly, and if a test fails, they point to exactly where code is not performing as expected.</p> <p>In addition, automated tests can act as the first real-world "user" of your code, forcing you to be rigorous about defining and documenting how your website should behave. Often they are the basis for your code examples and documentation. For these reasons, some software development processes start with test definition and implementation, after which the code is written to match the required behavior (e.g. <a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test-driven_development" class="external" target="_blank">test-driven</a> and <a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavior-driven_development" class="external" target="_blank">behavior-driven</a> development).</p> <p>This tutorial shows how to write automated tests for Django, by adding a number of tests to the <em>LocalLibrary</em> website.</p> </div> </section> <section aria-labelledby="types_of_testing"> <h3 id="types_of_testing"><a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Django/Testing?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB#types_of_testing">Types of testing</a></h3> <div class="section-content"> <p>There are numerous types, levels, and classifications of tests and testing approaches.

Despite the name, this test framework is suitable for both unit and integration tests. The Django framework adds API methods and tools to help test web and Django-specific behavior. These allow you to simulate requests, insert test data, and inspect your application's output. Django also provides an API (<a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/%23liveservertestcase" class="external" target="_blank">LiveServerTestCase</a>) and tools for <a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/advanced/%23other-testing-frameworks" class="external" target="_blank">using different testing frameworks</a>, for example you can integrate with the popular <a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Tools_and_testing/Cross_browser_testing/Your_own_automation_environment?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB">Selenium</a> framework to simulate a user interacting with a live browser.</p> <p>To write a test you derive from any of the Django (or <em>unittest</em>) test base classes (<a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/%23simpletestcase" class="external" target="_blank">SimpleTestCase</a>, <a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/%23transactiontestcase" class="external" target="_blank">TransactionTestCase</a>, <a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/%23testcase" class="external" target="_blank">TestCase</a>, <a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/%23liveservertestcase" class="external" target="_blank">LiveServerTestCase</a>) and then write separate methods to check that specific functionality works as expected (tests use "assert" methods to test that expressions result in <code>True</code> or <code>False</code> values, or that two values are equal, etc.) When you start a test run, the framework executes the chosen test methods in your derived classes. The test methods are run independently, with common setup and/or tear-down behavior defined in the class, as shown below.</p> <div class="code-example"> <div class="example-header"> <span class="language-name">python</span> </div> <pre class="brush: python notranslate"><code>class YourTestClass(TestCase): def setUp(self): # Setup run before every test method. pass def tearDown(self): # Clean up run after every test method. pass def test_something_that_will_pass(self): self.assertFalse(False) def test_something_that_will_fail(self): self.assertTrue(False) </code></pre> </div> <p>The best base class for most tests is <a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/%23testcase" class="external" target="_blank">django.test.TestCase</a>. This test class creates a clean database before its tests are run, and runs every test function in its own transaction. The class also owns a test <a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/%23django.test.Client" class="external" target="_blank">Client</a> that you can use to simulate a user interacting with the code at the view level. In the following sections we're going to concentrate on unit tests, created using this <a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/%23testcase" class="external" target="_blank">TestCase</a> base class.</p> <div class="notecard note"> <p><strong>Note:</strong> The <a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/%23testcase" class="external" target="_blank">django.test.TestCase</a> class is very convenient, but may result in some tests being slower than they need to be (not every test will need to set up its own database or simulate the view interaction). Once you're familiar with what you can do with this class, you may want to replace some of your tests with the available simpler test classes.</p> </div> </div> </section> <section aria-labelledby="what_should_you_test"> <h3 id="what_should_you_test"><a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Django/Testing?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB#what_should_you_test">What should you test?</a></h3> <div class="section-content"> <p>You should test all aspects of your own code, but not any libraries or functionality provided as part of Python or Django.</p> <p>So for example, consider the <code>Author</code> model defined below. You don't need to explicitly test that <code>first_name</code> and <code>last_name</code> have been stored properly as <code>CharField</code> in the database because that is something defined by Django (though of course in practice you will inevitably test this functionality during development). Nor do you need to test that the <code>date_of_birth</code> has been validated to be a date field, because that is again something implemented in Django.</p> <p>However you should check the text used for the labels (<em>First name, Last name, Date of birth, Died</em>), and the size of the field allocated for the text (<em>100 chars</em>), because these are part of your design and something that could be broken/changed in future.</p> <div class="code-example"> <div class="example-header"> <span class="language-name">python</span> </div> <pre class="brush: python notranslate"><code>class Author(models.Model): first_name = models.CharField(max_length=100) last_name = models.CharField(max_length=100) date_of_birth = models.DateField(null=True, blank=True) date_of_death = models.DateField('Died', null=True, blank=True) def get_absolute_url(self): return reverse('author-detail', args=[str(self.id)]) def __str__(self): return '%s, %s' % (self.last_name, self.first_name) </code></pre> </div> <p>Similarly, you should check that the custom methods <code>get_absolute_url()</code> and <code>__str__()</code> behave as required because they are your code/business logic. In the case of <code>get_absolute_url()</code> you can trust that the Django <code>reverse()</code> method has been implemented properly, so what you're testing is that the associated view has actually been defined.</p> <div class="notecard note"> <p><strong>Note:</strong> Astute readers may note that we would also want to constrain the date of birth and death to sensible values, and check that death comes after birth. In Django this constraint would be added to your form classes (although you can define validators for model fields and model validators these are only used at the form level if they are called by the model's <code>clean()</code> method. This requires a <code>ModelForm</code>, or the model's <code>clean()</code> method needs to be specifically called.)</p> </div> <p>With that in mind let's start looking at how to define and run tests.</p> </div> </section> <section aria-labelledby="test_structure_overview"> <h2 id="test_structure_overview"><a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Django/Testing?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB#test_structure_overview">Test structure overview</a></h2> <div class="section-content"> <p>Before we go into the detail of "what to test", let's first briefly look at <em>where</em> and <em>how</em> tests are defined.</p> <p>Django uses the unittest module's <a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://docs.python.org/3/library/unittest.html%23unittest-test-discovery" class="external" target="_blank">built-in test discovery</a>, which will discover tests under the current working directory in any file named with the pattern <strong>test*.py</strong>. Provided you name the files appropriately, you can use any structure you like. We recommend that you create a module for your test code, and have separate files for models, views, forms, and any other types of code you need to test. For example:</p> <pre class="brush: plain notranslate">catalog/ /tests/ __init__.py test_models.py test_forms.py test_views.py </pre> <p>Create a file structure as shown above in your <em>LocalLibrary</em> project. The <strong>__init__.py</strong> should be an empty file (this tells Python that the directory is a package). You can create the three test files by copying and renaming the skeleton test file <strong>/catalog/tests.py</strong>.</p> <div class="notecard note"> <p><strong>Note:</strong> The skeleton test file <strong>/catalog/tests.py</strong> was created automatically when we <a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Django/skeleton_website?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB">built the Django skeleton website</a>. It is perfectly "legal" to put all your tests inside it, but if you test properly, you'll quickly end up with a very large and unmanageable test file.</p> <p>Delete the skeleton file as we won't need it.</p> </div> <p>Open <strong>/catalog/tests/test_models.py</strong>. The file should import <code>django.test.TestCase</code>, as shown:</p> <div class="code-example"> <div class="example-header"> <span class="language-name">python</span> </div> <pre class="brush: python notranslate"><code>from django.test import TestCase # Create your tests here. </code></pre> </div> <p>Often you will add a test class for each model/view/form you want to test, with individual methods for testing specific functionality. In other cases you may wish to have a separate class for testing a specific use case, with individual test functions that test aspects of that use-case (for example, a class to test that a model field is properly validated, with functions to test each of the possible failure cases). Again, the structure is very much up to you, but it is best if you are consistent.</p> <p>Add the test class below to the bottom of the file. The class demonstrates how to construct a test case class by deriving from <code>TestCase</code>.</p> <div class="code-example"> <div class="example-header"> <span class="language-name">python</span> </div> <pre class="brush: python notranslate"><code>class YourTestClass(TestCase): @classmethod def setUpTestData(cls): print("setUpTestData: Run once to set up non-modified data for all class methods.") pass def setUp(self): print("setUp: Run once for every test method to set up clean data.") pass def test_false_is_false(self): print("Method: test_false_is_false.") self.assertFalse(False) def test_false_is_true(self): print("Method: test_false_is_true.") self.assertTrue(False) def test_one_plus_one_equals_two(self): print("Method: test_one_plus_one_equals_two.") self.assertEqual(1 + 1, 2) </code></pre> </div> <p>The new class defines two methods that you can use for pre-test configuration (for example, to create any models or other objects you will need for the test):</p> <ul> <li><code>setUpTestData()</code> is called once at the beginning of the test run for class-level setup. You'd use this to create objects that aren't going to be modified or changed in any of the test methods.</li> <li><code>setUp()</code> is called before every test function to set up any objects that may be modified by the test (every test function will get a "fresh" version of these objects).</li> </ul> <div class="notecard note"> <p><strong>Note:</strong> The test classes also have a <code>tearDown()</code> method which we haven't used. This method isn't particularly useful for database tests, since the <code>TestCase</code> base class takes care of database teardown for you.</p> </div> <p>Below those we have a number of test methods, which use <code>Assert</code> functions to test whether conditions are true, false or equal (<code>AssertTrue</code>, <code>AssertFalse</code>, <code>AssertEqual</code>). If the condition does not evaluate as expected then the test will fail and report the error to your console.</p> <p>The <code>AssertTrue</code>, <code>AssertFalse</code>, <code>AssertEqual</code> are standard assertions provided by <strong>unittest</strong>. There are other standard assertions in the framework, and also <a href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=pl&amp;tl=fr&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;u=https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/%23assertions" class="external" target="_blank">Django-specific assertions</a> to test if a view redirects (<code>assertRedirects</code>), to test if a particular template has been used (<code>assertTemplateUsed</code>), etc.</p> <div class="notecard note"> <p><strong>Note:</strong> You should <strong>not</strong> normally include <strong>print()</strong> functions in your tests as shown above.

You don't need to verify that Django validates the field type correctly (unless you created your own custom field and validation) — i.e. you don't need to test that an email field only accepts emails. However you would need to test any additional validation that you expect to be performed on the fields and any messages that your code will generate for errors.</p> <p>Consider our form for renewing books. This has just one field for the renewal date, which will have a label and help text that we will need to verify.</p> <div class="code-example"> <div class="example-header"> <span class="language-name">python</span> </div> <pre class="brush: python notranslate"><code>class RenewBookForm(forms.Form): """Form for a librarian to renew books.""" renewal_date = forms.DateField(help_text="Enter a date between now and 4 weeks (default 3).") def clean_renewal_date(self): data = self.cleaned_data['renewal_date'] # Check if a date is not in the past. if data &lt; datetime.date.today(): raise ValidationError(_('Invalid date - renewal in past')) # Check if date is in the allowed range (+4 weeks from today). if data &gt; datetime.date.today() + datetime.timedelta(weeks=4): raise ValidationError(_('Invalid date - renewal more than 4 weeks ahead')) # Remember to always return the cleaned data. return data </code></pre> </div> <p>Open our <strong>/catalog/tests/test_forms.py</strong> file and replace any existing code with the following test code for the <code>RenewBookForm</code> form. We start by importing our form and some Python and Django libraries to help test time-related functionality. We then declare our form test class in the same way as we did for models, using a descriptive name for our <code>TestCase</code>-derived test class.</p> <div class="code-example"> <div class="example-header"> <span class="language-name">python</span> </div> <pre class="brush: python notranslate"><code>import datetime from django.test import TestCase from django.utils import timezone from catalog.forms import RenewBookForm class RenewBookFormTest(TestCase): def test_renew_form_date_field_label(self): form = RenewBookForm() self.assertTrue(form.fields['renewal_date'].label is None or form.fields['renewal_date'].label == 'renewal date') def test_renew_form_date_field_help_text(self): form = RenewBookForm() self.assertEqual(form.fields['renewal_date'].help_text, 'Enter a date between now and 4 weeks (default 3).') def test_renew_form_date_in_past(self): date = datetime.date.today() - datetime.timedelta(days=1) form = RenewBookForm(data={'renewal_date': date}) self.assertFalse(form.is_valid()) def test_renew_form_date_too_far_in_future(self): date = datetime.date.today() + datetime.timedelta(weeks=4) + datetime.timedelta(days=1) form = RenewBookForm(data={'renewal_date': date}) self.assertFalse(form.is_valid()) def test_renew_form_date_today(self): date = datetime.date.today() form = RenewBookForm(data={'renewal_date': date}) self.assertTrue(form.is_valid()) def test_renew_form_date_max(self): date = timezone.localtime() + datetime.timedelta(weeks=4) form = RenewBookForm(data={'renewal_date': date}) self.assertTrue(form.is_valid()) </code></pre> </div> <p>The first two functions test that the field's <code>label</code> and <code>help_text</code> are as expected. We have to access the field using the fields dictionary (e.g. <code>form.fields['renewal_date']</code>). Note here that we also have to test whether the label value is <code>None</code>, because even though Django will render the correct label it returns <code>None</code> if the value is not <em>explicitly</em> set.</p> <p>The rest of the functions test that the form is valid for renewal dates just inside the acceptable range and invalid for values outside the range. Note how we construct test date values around our current date (<code>datetime.date.today()</code>) using <code>datetime.timedelta()</code> (in this case specifying a number of days or weeks). We then just create the form, passing in our data, and test if it is valid.</p> <div class="notecard note"> <p><strong>Note:</strong> Here we don't actually use the database or test client.

This class acts like a dummy web browser that we can use to simulate <code>GET</code> and <code>POST</code> requests on a URL and observe the response. We can see almost everything about the response, from low-level HTTP (result headers and status codes) through to the template we're using to render the HTML and the context data we're passing to it. We can also see the chain of redirects (if any) and check the URL and status code at each step. This allows us to verify that each view is doing what is expected.</p> <p>Let's start with one of our simplest views, which provides a list of all Authors.

Arguably if you trust Django then the only thing you need to test is that the view is accessible at the correct URL and can be accessed using its name. However if you're using a test-driven development process you'll start by writing tests that confirm that the view displays all Authors, paginating them in lots of 10.</p> <p>Open the <strong>/catalog/tests/test_views.py</strong> file and replace any existing text with the following test code for <code>AuthorListView</code>. As before we import our model and some useful classes. In the <code>setUpTestData()</code> method we set up a number of <code>Author</code> objects so that we can test our pagination.</p> <div class="code-example"> <div class="example-header"> <span class="language-name">python</span> </div> <pre class="brush: python notranslate"><code>from django.test import TestCase from django.urls import reverse from catalog.models import Author class AuthorListViewTest(TestCase): @classmethod def setUpTestData(cls): # Create 13 authors for pagination tests number_of_authors = 13 for author_id in range(number_of_authors): Author.objects.create( first_name=f'Dominique {author_id}', last_name=f'Surname {author_id}', ) def test_view_url_exists_at_desired_location(self): response = self.client.get('/catalog/authors/') self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200) def test_view_url_accessible_by_name(self): response = self.client.get(reverse('authors')) self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200) def test_view_uses_correct_template(self): response = self.client.get(reverse('authors')) self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200) self.assertTemplateUsed(response, 'catalog/author_list.html') def test_pagination_is_ten(self): response = self.client.get(reverse('authors')) self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200) self.assertTrue('is_paginated' in response.context) self.assertTrue(response.context['is_paginated'] == True) self.assertEqual(len(response.context['author_list']), 10) def test_lists_all_authors(self): # Get second page and confirm it has (exactly) remaining 3 items response = self.client.get(reverse('authors')+'?page=2') self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200) self.assertTrue('is_paginated' in response.context) self.assertTrue(response.context['is_paginated'] == True) self.assertEqual(len(response.context['author_list']), 3) </code></pre> </div> <p>All the tests use the client (belonging to our <code>TestCase</code>'s derived class) to simulate a <code>GET</code> request and get a response.

This is incredibly useful for testing, because it allows us to confirm that our template is getting all the data it needs. In other words we can check that we're using the intended template and what data the template is getting, which goes a long way to verifying that any rendering issues are solely due to template.</p> <h4 id="views_that_are_restricted_to_logged_in_users">Views that are restricted to logged in users</h4> <p>In some cases you'll want to test a view that is restricted to just logged in users.

Most importantly we've provided a brief summary of what you should test, which is often the hardest thing to work out when you're getting started. There is a lot more to know, but even with what you've learned already you should be able to create effective unit tests for your websites.</p> <p>The next and final tutorial shows how you can deploy your wonderful (and fully tested!)

Not only is there more to test, but, as interactions between components become more complex, a small change in one area can impact other areas, so more changes will be required to ensure everything keeps working and errors are not introduced as more changes are made. One way to mitigate these problems is to write automated tests, which can easily and reliably be run every time you make a change. This tutorial shows how to automate <em>unit testing</em> of your website using Django's test framework.</p>\n<figure class=\"table-container\"><table>\n <tbody>\n <tr>\n <th scope=\"row\">Prerequisites:</th>\n <td>\n Complete all previous tutorial topics, including <a href=\"/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Django/Forms\">Django Tutorial Part 9: Working with forms</a>.\n </td>\n </tr>\n <tr>\n <th scope=\"row\">Objective:</th>\n <td>To understand how to write unit tests for Django-based websites.</td>\n </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table></figure>"}},{"type":"prose","value":{"id":"overview","title":"Overview","isH3":false,"content":"<p>The <a href=\"/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Django/Tutorial_local_library_website\">Local Library</a> currently has pages to display lists of all books and authors, detail views for <code>Book</code> and <code>Author</code> items, a page to renew <code>BookInstance</code> items, and pages to create, update, and delete <code>Author</code> items (and <code>Book</code> records too, if you completed the <em>challenge</em> in the <a href=\"/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Django/Forms\">forms tutorial</a>). Even with this relatively small site, manually navigating to each page and <em>superficially</em> checking that everything works as expected can take several minutes. As we make changes and grow the site, the time required to manually check that everything works \"properly\" will only grow. If we were to continue as we are, eventually we'd be spending most of our time testing, and very little time improving our code.</p>\n<p>Automated tests can really help with this problem! The obvious benefits are that they can be run much faster than manual tests, can test to a much lower level of detail, and test exactly the same functionality every time (human testers are nowhere near as reliable!) Because they are fast, automated tests can be executed more regularly, and if a test fails, they point to exactly where code is not performing as expected.</p>\n<p>In addition, automated tests can act as the first real-world \"user\" of your code, forcing you to be rigorous about defining and documenting how your website should behave. Often they are the basis for your code examples and documentation. For these reasons, some software development processes start with test definition and implementation, after which the code is written to match the required behavior (e.g. <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test-driven_development\" class=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">test-driven</a> and <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavior-driven_development\" class=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">behavior-driven</a> development).</p>\n<p>This tutorial shows how to write automated tests for Django, by adding a number of tests to the <em>LocalLibrary</em> website.</p>"}},{"type":"prose","value":{"id":"types_of_testing","title":"Types of testing","isH3":true,"content":"<p>There are numerous types, levels, and classifications of tests and testing approaches.

Despite the name, this test framework is suitable for both unit and integration tests. The Django framework adds API methods and tools to help test web and Django-specific behavior. These allow you to simulate requests, insert test data, and inspect your application's output. Django also provides an API (<a href=\"https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/#liveservertestcase\" class=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">LiveServerTestCase</a>) and tools for <a href=\"https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/advanced/#other-testing-frameworks\" class=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">using different testing frameworks</a>, for example you can integrate with the popular <a href=\"/en-US/docs/Learn/Tools_and_testing/Cross_browser_testing/Your_own_automation_environment\">Selenium</a> framework to simulate a user interacting with a live browser.</p>\n<p>To write a test you derive from any of the Django (or <em>unittest</em>) test base classes (<a href=\"https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/#simpletestcase\" class=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">SimpleTestCase</a>, <a href=\"https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/#transactiontestcase\" class=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">TransactionTestCase</a>, <a href=\"https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/#testcase\" class=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">TestCase</a>, <a href=\"https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/topics/testing/tools/#liveservertestcase\" class=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">LiveServerTestCase</a>) and then write separate methods to check that specific functionality works as expected (tests use \"assert\" methods to test that expressions result in <code>True</code> or <code>False</code> values, or that two values are equal, etc.) When you start a test run, the framework executes the chosen test methods in your derived classes.

For example:</p>\n<pre class=\"brush: plain notranslate\">catalog/\n /tests/\n __init__.py\n test_models.py\n test_forms.py\n test_views.py\n</pre>\n<p>Create a file structure as shown above in your <em>LocalLibrary</em> project.

We can see almost everything about the response, from low-level HTTP (result headers and status codes) through to the template we're using to render the HTML and the context data we're passing to it. We can also see the chain of redirects (if any) and check the URL and status code at each step. This allows us to verify that each view is doing what is expected.</p>\n<p>Let's start with one of our simplest views, which provides a list of all Authors.

websites grow they become harder to test manually. Not only is there more to test, but, as interactions between components become more complex, a small change in one area can impact other areas, so more changes will be required to ensure everything keeps working and errors are not introduced as more changes are made. One way to mitigate these problems is to write automated tests, which can easily and reliably be run every time you make a change. This tutorial shows how to automate unit testing of your website using Django's test framework.","title":"Django Tutorial Part 10: Testing a Django web application","toc":[{"text":"Overview","id":"overview"},{"text":"Test structure overview","id":"test_structure_overview"},{"text":"How to run the tests","id":"how_to_run_the_tests"},{"text":"LocalLibrary tests","id":"locallibrary_tests"},{"text":"Other recommended test tools","id":"other_recommended_test_tools"},{"text":"Challenge yourself","id":"challenge_yourself"},{"text":"Summary","id":"summary"},{"text":"See also","id":"see_also"}],"pageType":"learn-module-chapter"}}</script> <script>function gtElInit() {var lib = new google.translate.TranslateService();lib.translatePage('pl', 'fr', function () {});}</script> <script src="https://translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=gtElInit&amp;hl=en-GB&amp;client=wt" type="text/javascript"></script> </body> </html>
