I'm talking about
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/internals/contributing/writing-code
/unit-tests/#using-another-settings-module Using another settings module]
subsection.
Django system tests freezes on my machine with default settings (sqlite),
so I decided to try `postgresql` as backend.
I created user with CREATEDB permissions and replaced DB settings with
{{{
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2',
'USER': 'test',
'PASSWORD': 'test',
'HOST': 'localhost',
'NAME': 'test_d'
},
'other': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2',
'USER': 'test',
'PASSWORD': 'test',
'HOST': 'localhost',
'NAME': 'test_o',
}
}
}}}
After that I got an error:
{{{
django.db.utils.OperationalError: FATAL: database "test_d" does not exist
}}}
When docs says:
{{{
Test databases get their names by prepending test_ to the value of the
NAME settings for the databases defined in DATABASES. These test databases
are deleted when the tests are finished.
}}}
I'm waiting that `runtests` will create `test_test_o` and `test_test_d`
for me and I no need in `test_d` and `test_o` databases at all.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong or docs should be improved?
P.S. After I created dbs manually, I got:
{{{
psycopg2.ProgrammingError: permission denied to create extension "hstore".
HINT: Must be superuser to create this extension.
}}}
Mb it's engine specific error, I'm not sure.
