To publish a new version of django-test-extras app to PyPI, set the __version__ string in test_extras/__init__.py, then run:

# Run the tests against multiple environments
tox
# Publish to PyPI
./setup.py publish
# Tag (change 1.0.0 to the version you are publishing!)
git tag -a v1.0.0 -m 'version 1.0.0'
git push --tags

Running the tests

To run the tests against the current environment:

./manage.py test

To run the tests against multiple environments, install tox using pip install tox, make sure you're not currently in a virtual environment, then simply run tox:

tox

Changelog

3.2.0

• Fix usage of deprecated NoArgsCommand to use BaseCommand: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/releases/1.8/#django-core-management-noargscommand

3.0.1

• Fix issue with dumpdata attempting to access unmanaged models.

3.0.0

• Fix issue parsing arguments to the test command: #11
• Drop support for Django 1.7 (this was to make it easier to fix the above issue).

2.0.0

• Add Django 1.8 compatibility

Backwards-incompatible changes (hence the new major version):

• Drop support for Django 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6 (you can still use django-test-extras 1.1.4 if you can't upgrade Django)
• Remove superflush command - it was added for use by DataPreservingTransactionTestCaseMixin and is no longer needed now that DataPreservingTransactionTestCaseMixin has been rewritten for Django 1.8

1.1.4

• Fix coverage for apps with no models: #6

1.1.2

• Allow use with Django 1.7 (note: django-test-extras has not yet been thoroughly tested with Django 1.7)

1.1.1

• Fix data restore in Django 1.5/1.6 in DataPreservingTransactionTestCaseMixin
• Declare dependencies in setup.py

1.1.0

• Add --no-exit option
• Change short option names to avoid conflicts with new Django 1.6 options. This is a breaking change - if you were using -t you should now use --tags instead and if you were using -p you should now use --pdb instead.

1.0.11

• Python 2.7 compatibility fix
• Allow test classes to hook addSuccess, addError and addFailure

1.0.10

• Fix tag inclusion/exclusion options not working if '-x' is also specified

1.0.0

• Initial release
