When using a TransactionTestCase with serialized_rollback=True,
after creating the database and running its migrations (along with
emitting the post_migrate signal), the contents of the database
are serialized to _test_serialized_contents.
After the first test case, _fixture_teardown() would flush the
tables but then the post_migrate signal would be emitted and new
rows (with new PKs) would be created in the django_content_type
table. Then in any subsequent test cases in a suite,
_fixture_setup() attempts to deserialize the content of
_test_serialized_contents, but these rows are identical to the
rows already in the database except for their PKs. This causes an
IntegrityError due to the unique constraint in the
django_content_type table.
This change made it so that in the above scenario the post_migrate
signal is not emitted after flushing the tables, since it will be
repopulated during fixture_setup().
This is useful for debugging side effects affecting tests that
are usually executed before a given test. Full suite and pair
tests sort cases more or less deterministically, thus some test
cross-dependencies are easier to reveal by reversing the order.
Thanks Preston Timmons for the review.
Requests made with django.test.Client.login() and logout() respect
defaults defined in django.test.Client instantiation and are processed
through middleware.
Thanks to Loic for the reviews.
Scheme is handled correctly when making comparisons between two URLs. If
there isn't any scheme specified in the location where we are redirected to,
the original request's scheme is used. If present, the scheme in
``expected_url`` is the one used to make the comparations to.
All request methods of ``django.test.client.Client`` receive a ``secure``
argument that defaults to ``False`` indicating whether or not to make the
request through https.
Thanks Aymeric Augustin for the review.
* override_settings may now be imported from django.test
* removed Approximate from django.test
* updated documentation for things importable from django.test
Thanks akaariai for the suggestion.
Also moved its documentation to the 'advanced' section. It doesn't
belong to the 'overview'. Same for TransactionTestCase.reset_sequences.
When available_apps is set, after a TransactionTestCase, the database
is now totally empty. post_syncdb is fired at the beginning of the next
TransactionTestCase.

This can be used to make Django's test suite significantly faster by
reducing the number of models for which content types and permissions
must be created and tables must be flushed in each non-transactional
test.
It's documented for Django contributors and committers but it's branded
as a private API to preserve our freedom to change it in the future.
Most of the credit goes to Anssi. He got the idea and did the research.
Fixed#20483.
