Comment:
I'm hitting this problem, which means I have a concrete use case to offer.
I have a view that generates a PDF document by converting a HTML document
served by the same server (with phantomjs). It works as follows:
- user makes a HTTP request for a PDF document
- pdf_view() starts a phantomjs subprocess
- phantomjs makes a HTTP request for the equivalent HTML document
- html_view() renders a HTML template
- phantomjs gets the HTML, converts it to PDF, and returns that
- pdf_view() returns the PDF
I cannot use that view with the LiveServerTestCase because it's single
threaded. The thread runs pdf_view(), waits for phantomjs, but there's no
thread available to run html_view(), so the test blocks there.
