I am trying to create a set of test case to cover my django application. I need pre defined database data, to run some of my test. So I decided to use fixtures.
What I did was: 1) created fixture file: oleg$ python manage.py dumpdata goserver > fixture1.json 2) Placed the fixture in the directory where application lives oleg$ cp fixture1.json goserver/ 3) Write down the texture name in the tests file in my application
class GoserverTestCase(TestCase):
fixtures = ['fixture1.json']
def setUp(self):
pass
def testUserIsAdded(self):
print "Users" , User.objects.all()
#print ActiveList.objects.all()
self.assertEquals(True, True)
4) Run the text case with a command: oleg$ python manage.py test --verbosity=2 goserver
The output of the test run is (part of it):
Trying '/Users/oleg/jin/goclub/trunk/jin/../jin/register/fixtures' for xml fixture 'initial_data'... No xml fixture 'initial_data' in '/Users/oleg/jin/goclub/trunk/jin/../jin/register/fixtures'.

Actually the problem is that the fixture was not found at all, so no data I wanted to add into the test database was added. Could you please suggest me a way to solve the problem
I tried a new way to do it. I just made a dump of complete database and put it to the application folder.
But I came cross some encoding issues.
Can you please check the error response:

Have another problem. When I disabled fixtures I still getting an error:
