Project description
Django Data Migration Test
Test utilities for easily testing Django data migrations
Installation
pip install django-test-data-migrations
Usage
Define the following functions in your migration file
data_forward(*args)
data_backward(*args)
(optional)
from django_test_data_migrations import DataMigrationsTestCaseBase
from app_a.models import Animal
class YourDataMigrationTestCase(DataMigrationsTestCaseBase):
def test__forward_migration__something_important(self):
# Prepare some data
# Run
self.data_forward(some_arg_0, some_arg_1, ...)
# Some assertions
def test__backward_migration__something_important(self):
# Prepare some data
# Run
self.data_backward(some_arg_0, some_arg_1, ...)
# Some assertions
Example
Say you have a simple Django project with following general structure
test_project/
└── app_a
├── apps.py
├── __init__.py
├── migrations
│ ├── 0001_initial.py
│ ├── 0002_datafix_addsuffixtoname.py
│ └── __init__.py
├── models.py
└── tests
├── __init__.py
└── test_0002_datafix_addsuffixtoname.py
with the following model
from django.db import models
class Animal(models.Model):
species = models.CharField(blank=False, null=False, max_length=50)
name = models.CharField(blank=False, null=False, max_length=100)
def __str__(self):
return f"Animal [name={self.name}, species={self.species}]"
along with the following migration
# app_a/migrations/0002_datafix_addsuffixtoname.py
from django.db import migrations
SUFFIX = " ZZ"
def data_forward(Animal):
for animal in Animal.objects.all():
animal.name += SUFFIX
animal.save()
def data_backward(Animal):
for animal in Animal.objects.filter(name__endswith=SUFFIX):
animal.name = animal.name.rstrip(SUFFIX)
animal.save()
def forward(apps, schema_editor):
Animal = apps.get_model("app_a", "Animal")
data_forward(Animal)
def backward(apps, schema_editor):
Animal = apps.get_model("app_a", "Animal")
data_backward(Animal)
class Migration(migrations.Migration):
dependencies = [
('app_a', '0001_initial'),
]
operations = [
migrations.RunPython(forward, backward),
]
You can test it as the following
from django_test_data_migrations import DataMigrationsTestCaseBase
from app_a.models import Animal
class DataMigrationsTestCase(DataMigrationsTestCaseBase):
app_name = "app_a"
migration_name = "0002_datafix_addsuffixtoname"
def test__data_forward__append_suffix_to_name(self):
# Prepare data before migration
dog = Animal.objects.create(name="Dog", species="dog")
cat = Animal.objects.create(name="Cat", species="cat")
# Run `data_forward` aka the entry point to your data migration
self.data_forward(Animal)
# Make your assertions
self.assertEqual(Animal.objects.get(id=dog.id).name, "Dog ZZ")
self.assertEqual(Animal.objects.get(id=cat.id).name, "Cat ZZ")
def test__data_backward__append_suffix_to_name(self):
dog = Animal.objects.create(name="Dog ZZ", species="dog")
cat = Animal.objects.create(name="Cat zz", species="cat")
self.data_backward(Animal)
self.assertEqual(Animal.objects.get(id=dog.id).name, "Dog")
self.assertEqual(Animal.objects.get(id=cat.id).name, "Cat zz")
Why do I need this library?
- Runs your data migration test very fast.
- Encourages developers to write data-related Django migrations separately from model definition related Django migrations
- Writing tests for data related migrations is extremely important, but is either tricky to do or takes a long time to run. This library intends to testing data migrations easy and fast
