Hello everyone, I’m seeing errors when I run automated tests for my
Register APIView API endpoint. I’m building a test with DRF and I think I
set up everything correctly, I’m following the DRF docs.
Here is my automated test (test_register.py)
class UserRegisterTests(APITestCase): def test_register_user(self): url =
reverse('arborfindr:register') data = {'email': 'myem...@mail.com',
'password': 'mypassword123'} response = self.client.post(url, data, format=
'json') self.assertEqual(response.status_code, status.HTTP_201_CREATED) self
.assertEqual(User.objects.count(), 2)
self.assertEqual(User.objects.post().email,
'myem...@mail.com') self.assertTrue(User.objects.check_password(
'mypassword123'))
register serializers
class RegisterSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): password =
serializers.CharField(style={'input_type': 'password'}, write_only=True)
class Meta: model = User fields = ['email', 'username', 'password']
extra_kwargs = { 'password': {'write_only': True} } def validate(self, valid):
if valid['password'] != valid['password']: raise serializers.ValidationError
({"password": "Passwords do not match."}) return valid def create(self,
validated_data): user = User.objects.create_user( email=validated_data[
'email'], username=validated_data['username'], password=validated_data[
'password'] ) return user
views.py
# API endpoint for registration @authentication_classes([JWTAuthentication])
class RegisterView(APIView): def post(self, request): serializer =
RegisterSerializer(data=request.data, context={'request': request}) if
serializer.is_valid(): serializer.save() return Response({ 'message':
'successfully
registered', }, status=status.HTTP_201_CREATED) return
Response(serializer.errors, status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST)
Finally here is the error traceback

Here is the link to the example I followed for testing with DRF Testing -
Django REST framework
<https://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/testing/>.
Please I need help with this, in the docs the Response is set to
status.HTTP_201_CREATED but not sure if I should change the status code.
Please let me know if you need anything else from me.
