Django: test failing on a view with @login_required
- by Esteban Feldman
Hi all,
I'm trying to build a test for a view that's decorated with
@login_required, since I failed to make it work, I did a simple test
and still can't make it pass.
Here is the code for the simple test and the view:
def test_login(self):
user = self._create_new_user()
self.assertTrue(user.is_active)
login = self.client.login(username=user.username,
password=self.data['password1'])
self.failUnless(login, 'Could not log in')
response = self.client.get('/accounts/testlogin/')
self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200)
@login_required
def testlogin(request):
print 'testlogin !! '
return HttpResponse('OK')
_create_new_user() is saving the user and there is a test inside that
method to see that is working.
The test fails in the response.status_code, returning 302 and the
response instance is of a HttpResponseRedirect, is redirecting it as
if not logged in.
Any clue? I'm missing something?
Regards
Esteban
