Tests
Tests are stored in dbbackup.tests and for run them you must launch:
python runtests.py
In fact, runtests.py acts as a manage.py file and all Django command are available. So you could launch:
python runtests.py shell
For get a Python shell configured with the test project. Also all test command options are available and usable for run only some chosen tests. See Django test command documentation for more informations about it.
There are even functional tests:
./functional.sh
See documentation for details about
To run the tests across all supported versions of Django and Python, you can use Tox. Firstly install Tox:
pip install tox
To run the tests just use the command tox in the command line. If you want to run the tests against just one specific test environment you can run tox -e <testenv>. For example, to run the tests with Python3.3 and Django1.9 you would run:
tox -e py3.3-django1.9
The available test environments can be found in tox.ini.
