Description

The following code:

from django.test.utils import get_runner


Errors out with the following traceback in Django 1.9 with Python 3.3:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "runtests.py", line 116, in <module>
    runtests(failfast=options.failfast, verbosity=options.verbosity, coverage=options.coverage, *args)
  File "runtests.py", line 92, in runtests
    from django.test.utils import get_runner
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.3/site-packages/django/test/__init__.py", line 5, in <module>

    from importlib.util import find_spec as importlib_find
ImportError: cannot import name find_spec

Apparently importlib.util.find_spec appeared in Python 3.4 and thus fails to import in Python 3.2 and 3.3: https://docs.python.org/3/library/importlib.html#importlib.util.find_spec

From the 1.9 release notes:

Django 1.9 requires Python 2.7, 3.4, or 3.5. We highly recommend and only officially support the latest release of each series. Since Django 1.8, we’ve dropped support for Python 3.2 and 3.3.
