I find myself wanting to go poke around in the shell to check that everything has done what it's supposed to. Also, given that you mention being able to serialize any changes you've made as you quit, it sure would be nice if, until that happens, you could still run dumpdata before the database disappears.
Since the test runner already offers to delete it if a test database already exists, why not just let the one you created --with-fixture hang around until you run a new command that needs to get rid of it? Otherwise this is a great idea that I currently do manually with dropdb; createdb; manage.py loaddata; manage.py runserver; Todd --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
