Makes your Django tests simple and snappy
Project description
django-nose provides all the goodness of nose in your Django tests, like:
- Testing just your apps by default, not all the standard ones that happen to be in INSTALLED_APPS
- Running the tests in one or more specific modules (or apps, or classes, or folders, or just running a specific test)
- Obviating the need to import all your tests into tests/__init__.py. This not only saves busy-work but also eliminates the possibility of accidentally shadowing test classes.
- Taking advantage of all the useful nose plugins
It also provides:
- Fixture bundling, an optional feature which speeds up your fixture-based tests by a factor of 4
- Reuse of previously created test DBs, cutting 10 seconds off startup time
- Hygienic TransactionTestCases, which can save you a DB flush per test
- Support for various databases. Tested with MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite. Others should work as well.
django-nose requires nose 1.2.1 or later, and the latest release is recommended. It follows the Django’s support policy, supporting:
- Django 1.8 (LTS) with Python 2.7, 3.4, or 3.5
- Django 1.9 with Python 2.7, 3.4, or 3.5
- Django 1.10 with Python 2.7, 3.4, or 3.5
- Django 1.11 (LTS) with Python 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, or 3.6
- Django 2.0 with Python 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, or 3.7
- Django 2.1 with Python 3.5, 3.6, or 3.7
- Django 2.2 with Python 3.5, 3.6, or 3.7
Note to users
nose has been in maintenance mode since at least 2015. django-nose is in maintenance mode as well, and the sole maintainer is no longer an active user. See Jazzband.co to learn how django-nose is maintained and how you can help. New projects should consider using pytest, or unittest with the Django testing framework.
Installation
You can get django-nose from PyPI with… :
$ pip install django-nose
The development version can be installed with… :
$ pip install -e git://github.com/jazzband/django-nose.git#egg=django-nose
Since django-nose extends Django’s built-in test command, you should add it to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py:
INSTALLED_APPS = ( ... 'django_nose', ... )
Then set TEST_RUNNER in settings.py:
TEST_RUNNER = 'django_nose.NoseTestSuiteRunner'

1.1 (2012-05-19)
- Django TransactionTestCases don’t clean up after themselves; they leave junk in the DB and clean it up only on _pre_setup. Thus, Django makes sure these tests run last. Now django-nose does, too. This means one fewer source of failures on existing projects. (Erik Rose)
- Add support for hygienic TransactionTestCases. (Erik Rose)
- Support models that are used only for tests. Just put them in any file imported in the course of loading tests. No more crazy hacks necessary. (Erik Rose)
- Make the fixture bundler more conservative, fixing some conceivable situations in which fixtures would not appear as intended if a TransactionTestCase found its way into the middle of a bundle. (Erik Rose)
- Fix an error that would surface when using SQLAlchemy with connection pooling. (Roger Hu)
- Gracefully ignore the new --liveserver option introduced in Django 1.4; don’t let it through to nose. (Adam DePue)
1.0 (2012-03-12)
- New fixture-bundling plugin for avoiding needless fixture setup (Erik Rose)
- Moved FastFixtureTestCase in from test-utils, so now all the fixture-bundling stuff is in one library. (Erik Rose)
- Added the REUSE_DB setting for faster startup and shutdown. (Erik Rose)
- Fixed a crash when printing options with certain verbosities. (Daniel Abel)
- Broke hard dependency on MySQL. Support PostgreSQL. (Roger Hu)
- Support SQLite, both memory- and disk-based. (Roger Hu and Erik Rose)
- Nail down versions of the package requirements. (Daniel Mizyrycki)
