You are wrong. initial_data is automatically loaded whenever syncdb is run; syncdb is used to set up the test database, so all initial_data will be present in a test database. However, the rest of your analysis is correct - data manually loaded with loaddata won't be present in the test database. You need to either define a fixture in your django.test.TestCase, or call the loaddata management as part of the test case itself.
