POExamples of using Doctests in Django in an Agile / BDD way
text
Body
copied!<p>I'm interested in learning how to Doctests and Unit tests in a more Agile / BDD way. I've found a few tutorials that seem reasonable, but they are just thumbnails. What I would really like to see is the source code of some Django projects that were developed BDD style.</p> <p>The things I'm unclear about are how do you handle request objects etc. I have a situation where I have deployed my app and I'm getting completely different behavior in production that I did in development or even from the Python shell on the production server. I'm hoping some Doctests will help me diagnose this and well as open the door for a more Agile process of writing the tests first.</p> <p>Specifically, here is the code I'm trying to test:</p> <pre><code>def match_pictures_with_products( queryset, number_of_images = 3): products = [] i = 0 for product in queryset: if i < ( number_of_images ): image = product.imagemain_set.all()[:1] product.photo_url = image[0].photo.url products.append(product) i += 1 return products def index(request): """returns the top 10 most clicked products""" products = Product.objects.all()[:10] products = match_pictures_with_products( products, 10) . return render_to_response('products/product_list.html', {'products': products}) </code></pre> <p>How do I create a Doctest that ensures that index returns 10 objects?<br> The Product queries seem to work fine from the shell on the production server. The actual server is not returning any products at all.</p>

Querying!
