Hi!
That's about Python. You can't use variable if it wasn't defined earlier.
In your code return statement should have one less indentation level:
...
if(elemCategory=='routing'):
testElement =
ApprovedTestElement.objects.filter(testElemType=elemType,routing='Y');
elif(elemCategory=='switching'):
testElement =
ApprovedTestElement.objects.filter(testElemType=elemType,switching='Y');
return
render(request,self.template_name,{'testElement':testElement,'testPlanId':testPlanId})
Also, you should definitely read PEP-8 -
