Description

I'm trying to upgrade a project from Django 3.0 to Django 3.1 and wanted to try out the new "TEST": {"MIGRATE": False} database setting.

Sadly I'm running into an issue immediately when running ./manage.py test.

Removing the "TEST": {"MIGRATE": False} line allows the tests to run. So this is not blocking the upgrade for us, but it would be nice if we were able to use the new feature to skip migrations during testing.

For reference, this project was recently upgraded from Django 1.4 all the way to 3.0 so there might be some legacy cruft somewhere that triggers this.

Here's the trackeback. I'll try to debug this some more.

Thanks for this report, now I see that we need to synchronize all apps when MIGRATE is False, see comment. I've totally missed this when reviewing f5ebdfce5c417f9844e86bccc2f12577064d4bad. We can remove the feature from 3.1 if fix is not trivial.

comment:2 by Mariusz Felisiak, 4 years ago

Mocking settings.MIGRATION_MODULES to None for all apps sounds like an easier fix, see draft below:

         # We then serialize the current state of the database into a string
         # and store it on the connection. This slightly horrific process is so people

but I'm not convinced.

That seems similar to the solution I've been using for a while:

class NoMigrations:
    """Disable migrations for all apps"""

    def __getitem__(self, item):
        return None

    def __contains__(self, item):
        return True

MIGRATION_MODULES = NoMigrations()

(Which I also suggested it as a temporary solution in the original ticket https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/25388#comment:20)

I hadn't actually tried this MIGRATION_MODULES override on this project before. I just did a test run with the override and or some reason I had to add a fixtures = ['myapp/initial_data.json'] line to some of the TestCase classes that worked fine without it before. It seems that these test cases really needed this fixture, but for some reason worked fine when migrations are enabled. Is (test) fixture loading somehow tied to migrations?

Anyway, the tests work fine (the same 3 failures) with the MIGRATION_MODULES override, so it seems like it would be a reasonable alternative solution.

I don't think so, you've probably have these data somewhere is migrations.

Replying to felixxm:

I don't think so, you've probably have these data somewhere is migrations.

Ah maybe, I do have a callable default that gets_or_creates an object. I guess that callable is executed during migrations but not when syncing the database.

Thanks for the patch, hope to see it merged soon.
