Comment (by Mariusz Felisiak):
Replying to [comment:18 Shai Berger]:
> In the years since this ticket was first filed, cloud services have
become even more pervasive and important than they were. IMO, this means
that the `TEST_MEDIA_ROOT` approach is inferior to a `TEST_FILE_STORAGE`,
where the whole default storage is replaced for tests. That would allow
users to choose if the media in their tests are saved to memory (as
suggested in comment:5), to a different bucket in their cloud object
storage, or to a local file. Of course, if a user explicitly creates their
own storage in code, there's little Django can do as a framework.
Agreed, we should first resolved #26029
([https://github.com/django/django/pull/15610 PR]) to add `STORAGES`, then
we can add support for the new `test` key.
