Comment:

 Thanks Luke for the report.

 I'm the one who mentioned Windmill in the doc, mainly to replace the
 mention to Twill which itself appears to be a dead project. See the old
 doc: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/topics/testing/

 However, I did not test the integration between Windwill and
 `LiveServerTestCase` and if it doesn't work then we should absolutely
 remove that mention from the doc. Therefore I'm marking this ticket as
 release blocker.

 `LiveServerTestCase` was designed to be completely agnostic about what
 testing framework is used. So I tend to think that the issue lies in
 Windmill itself. Windmill is a fairly active project though, so it'd be
 nice if it did all work well (and if we could leave that mention in the
 doc). So I'll reach out to the Windmill maintainers to see if they have
 any thoughts on how to enable that support within their project.
