• django-test: work like ./manage.py test. Also set DEBUG_PROPAGATE_EXCEPTIONS to True so WebTest show the full traceback in tests output.

• django-serve: wrap the Django application in a WebError middleware and serve it. It’s also serve /media/ directories found in installed apps. You can also use -t to add the django-debug-toolbar to INSTALLED_APPS and MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES on the fly. You can also use request and post to test a single request:

  $ django-serve request /path arg1=foo
  
  $ django-serve post /path arg1=foo
  
  $ django-serve help [request|post]

You can also use some aliases. Create a ~/.djangodevkitrc like this:

[aliases]
m =
    syncdb --noinput
    migrate --noinput
si =
    schemamigration --initial []
sm =
    schemamigration --auto []

[] is replace with command line arguments. This mean that:

$ django-manage sm myapp

is equal to:

$ ./manage.py schemamigration --auto myapp

Notices that aliases are not listed in django-manage’s help
