Hi All,
I've created a DRF Web API application and I've got the following error
when running my unit test.
*Message: Expected a `Response`, `HttpResponse` or `HttpStreamingResponse`
to be returned from the view, but received a `<class 'NoneType'>`*
My intention is to simulate my ajax call when uploading the file.
The only difference I've noticed between ajax call and unit test api call
is when calling via ajax I can use *request.data['file'].read()* which
gives me the file contents.
When I make the API call via django I can not use*
request.data['file'].read()*, as it gives me *b'' (which means blank)*
This is the code
class Import_CSV_File_Test(TestCase):
def setUp(self):
utf8_file = os.path.join(settings.BASE_DIR, "app", "tests", "data",
"user_utf8n.csv")
file_utf8 = SimpleUploadedFile(utf8_file, open(utf8_file, 'rb').read(),
content_type='application/vnd.ms-excel')
self.form_data = {'encode': 'utf8', 'file': file_utf8}
def test_import_file_format_utf8(self):
response = self.client.post(reverse(self._url, args=[self._egateid]),
data=self.form_data)
self.assertEqual(response.status_code, status.HTTP_201_CREATED)
Have any of you encountered this issue?
Do you guys have another way of unit testing the file upload api call?
Thank you very much.
Regards,
Alex
