According to the documentation for Django 1.3 (confirmed Django 1.3 in
'Version' drop down box on page load):
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/testing/
In case you want to override a setting for just one test method or even
the whole TestCase class, Django provides the override_settings()
decorator (see PEP 318). It's used like this:
...
from django.test.utils import override_settings
However, this is not available in 1.3
{{{
(glenjarvis)Pokey.local> ./manage.py shell
Python 2.6.1 (r261:67515, Aug 2 2010, 20:10:18)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)
>>> import django
>>> print django.VERSION
(1, 3, 0, 'final', 0)
>>> from django.test.utils import override_settings
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name override_settings
}}}
I have verified, however, that this is available in 1.4 Alpha:
{{{
(django14)Pokey.local> python manage.py shell
Python 2.6.1 (r261:67515, Aug 2 2010, 20:10:18)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)
>>> import django
>>> print django.VERSION
(1, 4, 0, 'alpha', 1)
>>> from django.test.utils import override_settings
>>>
}}}
Therefore, this is just a documentation error for version.
