Description

Documentation on ​http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/testing/ should mention, that the test database will be created by user DATABASE_USER (so, the user must be created like CREATE user someuser WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'password' CREATEDB).

There is also need to have appropriate line in /usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf (like local database_name username trust).

This note is relevant only for PostgreSQL database, I have no similar experience with MySQL or SQLite
