In some cases (notably Python 3), when handle_uncaught_exception was
itself raising an exception, the got_request_exception was storing
the latter exception instead of the original exception.
* Renamed the __unicode__ methods
* Applied the python_2_unicode_compatible decorator
* Removed the StrAndUnicode mix-in that is superseded by
python_2_unicode_compatible
* Kept the __unicode__ methods in classes that specifically
test it under Python 2
In Python 3, the str type has an __iter__ attribute. Therefore, the
presence of an __iter__ attribute is not sufficient to distinguish
'standard' iterables (list, tuple) from strings.
* Renamed smart_unicode to smart_text (but kept the old name under
Python 2 for backwards compatibility).
* Renamed smart_str to smart_bytes.
* Re-introduced smart_str as an alias for smart_text under Python 3
and smart_bytes under Python 2 (which is backwards compatible).
Thus smart_str always returns a str objects.
* Used the new smart_str in a few places where both Python 2 and 3
want a str.
Previously, the flush was done before the test case execution and now
it is performed after it.
Other changes to the testing infrastructure include:
* TransactionTestCase now doesn't reset autoincrement sequences either
(previous behavior can achieved by using `reset_sequences`.)
With this, no implicit such reset is performed by any of the provided
TestCase classes.
* New ordering of test cases: All unittest tes cases are run first and
doctests are run at the end.
THse changes could be backward-incompatible with test cases that relied
on some kind of state being preserved between tests. Please read the
relevant sections of the release notes and testing documentation for
further details.
Thanks Andreas Pelme for the initial patch. Karen Tracey and Anssi
Kääriäinen for the feedback and Anssi for reviewing.
This also fixes#12408.
In particular, allow the '--' sequence to be present in string
values without being interpreted as comment marker.
Thanks Tim Chase for the report and shaleh for the initial patch.
Specify python interpreter interface ipython or bpython with the -i,
--interface options
argument.
ex// python manage.py shell -i bpython
ex// python manage.py shell --interface bpython
Like all other options, defaults to default python interpreter when your
selected choice isn't available.
