django test acces to several views code example
Example: test if class-based view exists unittest
from django.contrib.auth.models import AnonymousUser, User
from django.test import RequestFactory, TestCase
from .views import MyView, my_view
class SimpleTest(TestCase):
def setUp(self):
# Every test needs access to the request factory.
self.factory = RequestFactory()
self.user = User.objects.create_user(
username='jacob', email='jacob@…', password='top_secret')
def test_details(self):
# Create an instance of a GET request.
request = self.factory.get('/customer/details')
# Recall that middleware are not supported. You can simulate a
# logged-in user by setting request.user manually.
request.user = self.user
# Or you can simulate an anonymous user by setting request.user to
# an AnonymousUser instance.
request.user = AnonymousUser()
# Test my_view() as if it were deployed at /customer/details
response = my_view(request)
# Use this syntax for class-based views.
response = MyView.as_view()(request)
self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200)
