Hi, recently i deployed an API using the following serializers:
class SimpleMotorTypeSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = MotorType fields = ('url', 'id', 'customer_part_number', ) class MotorSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): motor_type = SimpleMotorTypeSerializer(source='abc', read_only=True) class Meta: model = Motor fields = ('url', 'id', 'motor_type', ...) The problem is with the source agrument. I just misspelled the source string (inidicated here with "abc", which does not exist). My tests didn't throw an error because there is no error thrown at all. So i am interested how i could avoid this in future (because typing errors are a human thing). Probably testing each single attribute in my JSON response. But mainly i am asking: Why there is no error raised for a non existing "abc" source?
