copied!<p>As you've discovered, Django's default test runner makes quite a few assumptions, including that it'll be able to create a new test database to run the tests against.</p> <p>If you need to override this or any of these default assumptions, you probably want to <a href="http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.1/topics/testing/#defining-a-test-runner" rel="nofollow noreferrer">write a custom test runner</a>. By doing so you'll have full control over exactly how tests are discovered, bootstrapped, and run.</p> <p>(If you're running Django's development trunk, or are looking forward to Django 1.2, note that defining custom test runners has recently gotten <a href="http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/testing/#topics-testing-test-runner" rel="nofollow noreferrer">quite a bit easier</a>.)</p> <p>If you poke around, you'll find a <a href="http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/705/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">few examples</a> of <a href="http://blog.jeffbalogh.org/post/57653515/nose-test-runner-for-django" rel="nofollow noreferrer">custom test runners</a> you could use to get started.</p> <p>Now, keep in mind that once you've taken control of test running you'll need to ensure that you someone meet the same assumptions about environment that Django's built-in runner does. In particular, you'll need to someone guarantee that whatever test database you'll use is a clean, fresh one for the tests -- you'll be quite unhappy if you try to run tests against a database with unpredictable contents.</p>
