General Setting Configuration

The following Django settings allow configuration of the ExpandedTestCases package.

All of these settings are optional, and will fall back to a default value if not defined.

DJANGO_EXPANDED_TESTCASES_DEBUG_PRINT

Django ETC can optionally provide additional debug testing output, to help with trying to troubleshoot test errors. See Debug Output Overview for more details.

This setting enables or disables debug output.

Type: bool
Default: True

Example:

DJANGO_EXPANDED_TESTCASES_DEBUG_PRINT = False

DJANGO_EXPANDED_TESTCASES_ALLOW_MESSAGE_PARTIALS

When running the assertContextMessages assertion, this setting can optionally allow partial message matching. If partial is allowed, then checking for message substrings will pass. Otherwise, the message string must match the full provided test value, or it will fail.

Type: bool
Default: True

Example:

DJANGO_EXPANDED_TESTCASES_ALLOW_MESSAGE_PARTIALS = False

DJANGO_EXPANDED_TESTCASES_MATCH_ALL_CONTEXT_MESSAGES

Planned for a future release.

When running the assertContextMessages assertion, this setting optionally tell tests to fail when there are messages in the response that were not explicitly tested for.

Type: bool
Default: False

Example:

DJANGO_EXPANDED_TESTCASES_MATCH_ALL_CONTEXT_MESSAGES = True
