django-nose specific test

Running Specific Test in django-nose

Since I used django-nose for my project. Django-nose runner cannot behave like default django test runner.

Following command will not work in django-nose test runner.

# Run all the tests found within the 'animals' package
$ ./manage.py test appname

# Run just one test case
$ ./manage.py test appname.tests.TestCaseName

# Run just one test method
$ ./manage.py test appname.tests.TestCaseName.test_function_name

Because django-nose structured all the test in one package called tests following below.

tests:
   |- __init__.py
   |- test_views.py
   |- test_forms.py
   |- test_endpoints.py
   |- test_utils.py

Here is the alternative to run specific task in django-nose.

# Run all the tests found within the 'animals' package
$ ./manage.py test appname

# Run just one test case
$ ./manage.py test appname.tests.test_script:TestCaseName

# Run just one test method
$ ./manage.py test appname.tests.test_script:TestCaseName.test_function_name
