Testing when using django
=========================
Django's ORM has an unfortunate implementation choice to consider
:class:`~django.db.models.Model` instances to be identical as long as their
primary keys are the same:
>>> from testfixtures.tests.test_django.models import SampleModel
>>> SampleModel(id=1, value=1) == SampleModel(id=1, value=2)
True
To work around this, :mod:`testfixtures.django` :ref:`registers <comparer-register>`
a comparer for the django :class:`~django.db.models.Model` class. However,
for this to work, ``ignore_eq=True`` must be passed:
>>> compare(SampleModel(id=1, value=1), SampleModel(id=1, value=2),
... ignore_eq=True)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
AssertionError: SampleModel not as expected:
<BLANKLINE>
same:
[u'id']
<BLANKLINE>
values differ:
'value': 1 != 2
Since the above can quickly become cumbersome, a django-specific version
of :func:`~testfixtures.compare`, with ignoring ``__eq__`` built in, is provided:
>>> from testfixtures.django import compare as django_compare
>>> django_compare(SampleModel(id=1, value=1), SampleModel(id=1, value=2))
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
AssertionError: SampleModel not as expected:
<BLANKLINE>
same:
[u'id']
<BLANKLINE>
values differ:
'value': 1 != 2
It may also be that you want to ignore fields over which you have no control
and cannot easily mock, such as created or modified times. For this, you
can use the `ignore_fields` option:
>>> compare(SampleModel(id=1, value=1), SampleModel(id=1, value=2),
... ignore_eq=True, ignore_fields=['value'])
.. note::
The implementation of the comparer for
:class:`~django.db.models.Model` instances ignores fields
that have ``editable`` set to ``False``.
