Asserts that the response returned a ``status_code`` redirect status,
redirected to ``expected_url`` (including any ``GET`` data), and that the
final page was received with ``target_status_code``.
If your request used the ``follow`` argument, the ``expected_url`` and
``target_status_code`` will be the url and status code for the final
point of the redirect chain.
The ``host`` argument sets a default host if ``expected_url`` doesn't
include one (e.g. ``"/bar/"``). If ``expected_url`` is an absolute URL that
includes a host (e.g. ``"http://testhost/bar/"``), the ``host`` parameter
will be ignored. Note that the test client doesn't support fetching external
URLs, but the parameter may be useful if you are testing with a custom HTTP
host (for example, initializing the test client with
``Client(HTTP_HOST="testhost")``.
