Comment:
I get this warning in a new 1.7 project, started with `startproject` and
with the settings module customised (added SITE_ID, because I use
django.contrib.sites; defined TEMPLATE_LOADERS, because I use a custom
template loader; and defined MANAGERS, because I use `mail_managers`).
Django thinks this project has been migrated, but it hasn't. I had to
check the source to find out why, and even the docstring says it checks if
we have not overridden TEST_RUNNER. The link from the warning talks about
either updating my test suite OR using a deprecated test runner to
maintain the old behaviour. I don't need to do either, but I can force
Django to skip this check by explicitly defining TEST_RUNNER to be the
same value that it is already set to by default. Seems a bit of a hack.
The linked docs should mention that Django checks a few key markers in the
settings module to guess what version of Django you might have run in the
past (not a very good check to begin with), and provide a new short-term
setting specifically to disable the check if you know it doesn't apply to
you, instead of forcing you to explicitly set the test runner to the
default value.
Or even better, check the markers and if they trigger then use the old
test runner to actually detect tests that aren't found with the new runner
and report that there "are" (instead of "may be") tests that won't run.
