Ticket #30249, comment 6
v2 v3 7 7 So the other use is having your web server handle the 500 (or whatever) rather than Django doing it. Nothing to do with testing. 8 8 9 Now I know you're not suggesting we get rid of it. My point was that **as an action at a distance** setting controlling the exception handling behaviour, we might well want to phase it out at some point in the future.9 Now I know you're not suggesting we get rid of it. My point was that **as an action at a distance** setting, controlling the exception handling behaviour, we might well want to phase it out at some point in the future. 10 10 11 11 It was the **action at a distance** nature of it that I thought you would, equally to me, not be keen on. 12 12 13 The point I (really!) imagined that we'd just agree on is that **action at a distance** type code is to be avoided. (Hence my use if "horrific" — using humour as I didn't think it a point where we wouldn't already agree.)13 The point I (really!) imagined that we'd just agree on is that **action at a distance** type code is to be avoided. (Hence my use of "horrific" — using humour as I didn't think it a point where we wouldn't already agree.) 14 14 15 15 So the relevance for your suggestion here is that I don't think **an action at a distance** use of a setting to control the behaviour of the test client is a good move. Rather, setting a flag on the test client — the `raise_request_exceptions` flag — is the right locus for this behaviour. … … 23 23 This I understand. It's totally reasonable. (I'm not sure I agree yet but I understand the desire.) 24 24 25 For me, the way to do this, if we want it, is to swap the default behaviour (i.e. change `raise_request_exceptions` from `True` to `False`)25 For me, the way to do this, if we want it, is to swap the default behaviour of the existing flag (i.e. change `raise_request_exceptions` from `True` to `False`) 26 26 27 27 So, can we agree that far? (That's a genuine question.)
