./manage.py test

TBD

These tests/ui views are only available in the development environment when DEBUG=True. (They are conditionally loaded in the root urls.py.)

The hi.tests.ui module uses auto-discovery by looking in the app directories.

In the app directory you want to have a visual testing page:

mkdir -p tests/ui
touch tests.__init__.py
touch tests/ui.__init__.py

Then:

Create tests/ui/views.py
Create tests/ui/urls.py (This gets auto-discovered. Esnure some default home page rule.)

The templates for these tests, by contention, would be put in the app's templates directory as templates/${APPNAME}/tests/ui.

There are some helper base classes to test viewing email formatting and sending emails.

hi.tests.ui.email_test_views.py

This requires the email templates follow the naming patterns expected in view classes.
