Comment (by Tim Graham):
Regarding inheritance, it's a Python concept rather than a Django-specific
one as far as I see.
Fixtures are fine to use, just automatic loading of fixtures named
`initial_data` is removed. You can also use
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/testing/tools/#topics-
testing-fixtures TransactionTestCase.fixtures] if you want to.
I'm not sure what "example of how to do a test" means exactly.
The discussion has gone in a number of directions and I'm not sure if
leaving the ticket open will be useful as the concrete steps to close it
are unclear to me. Maybe it would be better to reopen when you have a
patch ready.
