the :mod:`~django.contrib.staticfiles` app and want to have static files served
during the execution of your tests similar to what we get at development time
with ``DEBUG=True``, i.e. without having to collect them using
:djadmin:`collectstatic`. We'll use
the :class:`~django.contrib.staticfiles.testing.StaticLiveServerTestCase`

subclass which transparently serves all the assets during execution of
its tests in a way very similar to what we get at development time with
``DEBUG=True``, i.e. without having to collect them using
:djadmin:`collectstatic`.
