import twice when run test
Question
i have this code in my tests.py:
from models import *
and in the models.py I have a signal handler and register it with
post_save.connect( post_save_note, sender=Note )
and when i run test with ./manage.py test main
I found the signal handler was registered twice and executed twice, and I found it's because the models was imported twice.
can't i put from models import *
in the test code?
what should i do?
Solution
You need to make sure your models are always imported the same way.
So for example, if you have in example1/tests.py
:
from models import *
and in another package example2/views.py
:
from example1.models import ModelA
then you'll have the problem you are experiencing. The solution is to be consistent and use only one or the other.
