Pedant: there's a small bug above which has bitten me before doing a similar thing - settings.AWESOME ends up set to None after the test has run if it didn't exist before. > Anyways, I'd love to hear how others have dealt with this and any > other possible solutions. I've used Michael Foord's Mock library to patch a setting for the duration of a test case. Chris Withers' testfixtures library also has some sugar to provide a context manager approach, though I haven't used that in a little while.
