Description

I've added 'previous_request' variable to django.test.client.Client. It holds the last WSGIRequest created by ClientHandler.

This is useful because it allows me to test certain middleware which alters the request.

I'm including patches for:

django.test.client.Client
tests.regressiontests.test_client_regress.models
docs/testing.txt

Resolution: → wontfix
Status: new → closed

I'm marking this a wontfix, because I'm don't understand the use case, and the test you provided doesn't shed any light on the issue. If you can clarify your use case, feel free to reopen the ticket.

As a housekeeping issue - this should be submitted as a single patch rooted at the base of the Django tree.
