Description
At the moment I'm going through the fifth Django Tutorial on unit testing: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/intro/tutorial05/
I notices that in a number of places the following expression is used:
response.context['latest_question_list']
This doesn't work, and I think that instead there should be
response.context_data['latest_question_list']
I'm using Django 4.1.6
Brgds,
Vitalija

Replying to Tim Graham:
Duplicate of #22912. Please re-read the tutorial's mention of
setup_test_environment()and make sure you call it.
Hmm... What about the actual tests?
I would agree with you if you were speaking about the shell script, but for application tests, I'm afraid, this is not true.

Django's test runner calls setup_test_environment(). Is it not working for you?

Thanks for the explanation Tim. I didn't realize at the beginning that setup_test_environment() is running under the hood when tests are run.
