Hi all,

I've very recently come to to Django from a rails background, and 
struggling to do unit testing of Django models without saving to the 
database as I'm used to in Rails. Lets say you have 2 linked models, for 
example User and UserProfileDetails, then in my tests I want to set up the 
structure and not save any of it:

    user = User()
    user.profile_details = UserProfileDetails()
    ...
    # stuff that tests non-persistence related functionality

But I don't seem to be able to do this, because it will raise a 
RelatedObjectDoesNotExist error, saying UserProfileDetails has no user. 
Obviously I can get around this by saving the user first, but if I want to 
not touch the database in tests is there any way I can achieve this?

(also apologies if this has been asked before - I did a quick search of the 
archives and couldn't find anything).

Thanks in advance,
Roland
