I have a test which involve multiple Django views
It seems that the fakeredis isn't shared between multiple views
I tried running the following code:
import fakeredis
from testfixtures import Replacer
class TestWithFakeRedis(TestCase):
def setup_redis(self, test_func):
fake_redis = fakeredis.FakeStrictRedis()
with Replacer() as replace:
replace('app1.views.redis_connection', fake_redis)
replace("app2.views.redis_connection", fake_redis)
replace("app2.views.redis_connection", fake_redis)
test_func(fake_redis)
def test_something(self):
def test_func(redis_connection):
# some testing coded here
pass
self.setup_redis(test_func)
the fakeredis can't be passed between multiple views and it's something that I need
Thanks in advance,
Nadav
my solution involved using unittest.mock.patch:
import fakeredis
fake_redis = fakeredis.FakeRedis()
@patch("app_name1.views.redis_connection", fake_redis)
@patch("app_name2.views.redis_connection", fake_redis)
@patch("app_name3.views.redis_connection", fake_redis)
class TestSomethingWithRedis(TestCase):
pass
if you want to check query inside your test(s) use fake_redis
