3. Unit Testing in Django

Django Test Suite

Django comes with a test suite (django.test.TestCase) of its own, in the tests directory of the code base. Many Django project test suites are comprised mostly of integration tests (django.test.Client).

Things we'll cover

• Functional Test with Selenium
• Django (model, view, template) unit test
• Introducing Testing Goat (TDD)

More Advance Stuff (which we'll not cover)

• Mocking
• Test Fixtures
• Integration Testing (dead giveaway - django.test.Client)
  • Testing with database
  • Testing API
• Behavior Driven Development (BDD)
• Code Coverage
• Continuous Integration (CI)
