What happens when you run manage.py test?

The translation of the article was prepared especially for the students of the Python Web-Developer course .


You run the tests with a command manage.py test, but do you know what's going on under the hood? How does the test runner work and how does it place the dots, E and F on the screen?

As you learn how Django works, you will discover many use cases, such as changing cookies, setting global headers, and logging requests. Likewise, once you understand how tests work, you can customize processes to, for example, load tests in a different order, configure test parameters without a separate file, or block outgoing HTTP requests.

In this article, we'll go through the vital customization of the output of your tests, as well as changing the style of displaying test results from dots and letters to emoji.

However, before we write the code, let's do a reconstruction of the testing process.

Test output

Let's take a look at the test results. Let's take a project with an empty test as a basis:

from django.test import TestCase


class ExampleTests(TestCase):
    def test_one(self):
        pass

When we run our tests, we get familiar output:

$ python manage.py test
Creating test database for alias 'default'...
