Testing Django applications

===========================

Automated testing is an extremely useful bug-killing tool for the modern

Web developer. You can use a collection of tests -- a **test suite** -- to

solve, or avoid, a number of problems:

* When you're writing new code, you can use tests to validate your code

works as expected.

* When you're refactoring or modifying old code, you can use tests to

ensure your changes haven't affected your application's behavior

Testing a Web application is a complex task, because a Web application is made

of several layers of logic -- from HTTP-level request handling, to form

validation and processing, to template rendering. With Django's test-execution

framework and assorted utilities, you can simulate requests, insert test data,

inspect your application's output and generally verify your code is doing what

it should be doing.

The best part is, it's really easy.

This document is split into two primary sections. First, we explain how to

write tests with Django. Then, we explain how to run them.
