#34334 closed Bug (duplicate)

There might be an error in the Django Tutorial No. 5

Reported by: alv2017 Owned by: nobody
Component: Documentation Version: 4.1
Severity: Normal Keywords: Documentation Tutorial Bug

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

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?

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.
