Description

We should change things like self.assertTrue(fetched.active_translation.title == 'Otsikko') to use assertEqual and things like self.assertTrue('id' in form.fields) to use assertIn. Attaching an initial patch. I used grep -rI "assertTrue" * | grep == to find instances that need changing.

Should I create a new ticket for assertFalse(a == b), assertFalse(a != b), assertFalse("foo" in a) etc. instances?
