From 1e5ba8a07c583073f1d885156c92a266ceb8dce9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Shenton Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2012 15:56:42 -0700 Subject: Show modification to scripts/populate.py to accept memory DB URI The text didn't describe editing the populate.py to accept an optional ``settings`` argument, which _callFUT() in tests.py passed in. This is used to specify a memory-backed SQLite DB which we can wipe-n-load during testing. Show how to replace main() in populate.py per our source code to accept this argument, and use it to set the DB URI; it also uses our Page model. --- docs/tutorials/wiki2/tests.rst | 12 ++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+) (limited to 'docs') diff --git a/docs/tutorials/wiki2/tests.rst b/docs/tutorials/wiki2/tests.rst index 92544404c..94d97d2d5 100644 --- a/docs/tutorials/wiki2/tests.rst +++ b/docs/tutorials/wiki2/tests.rst @@ -34,6 +34,18 @@ tested in the unit tests, like logging in, logging out, checking that the ``viewer`` user cannot add or edit pages, but the ``editor`` user can, and so on. +We must first modify ``main()`` in ``scripts/populate.py``, adding an +optional ``settings`` argument so we can pass in a URI to a +memory-resident database instead of our disk-based database we've +populated; this allows us to run our tests with a clean database each +time.
