Example in Topic/Testing refer to django.utils.unittest

[kamal.mustafa@…]

I'm reading ​http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/topics/testing/ and there's example:-

from django.utils import unittest
from myapp.models import Animal

class AnimalTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
    def setUp(self):
        self.lion = Animal.objects.create(name="lion", sound="roar")
        self.cat = Animal.objects.create(name="cat", sound="meow")

    def testSpeaking(self):
        self.assertEqual(self.lion.speak(), 'The lion says "roar"')
        self.assertEqual(self.cat.speak(), 'The cat says "meow"')

And this is how I installed Django:-

$ mkvirtualenv testdjango
$ pip install Django==1.2
$ python
>>> import django
>>> django.get_version()
'1.2'
>>> import django.utils.unittest
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named unittest
>>> from django.utils import unittest
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name unittest

Got the same result with "pip install Django==1.2.4"

This is an error in the docs.

Yep, that was backported from trunk [15228], and didn't get edited for 1.2.X. It's an easy fix.
