Hi,
This is my first django project and I'm trying write some tests. So
far the experience has been good and I've been able to get by using
the documentation and blog posts. Thanks for all of the work that went
into django. I'm using django 1.1.1 with python 2.6.4 on x86_64
linux.
I have a few tests that work using client.get. I'm trying to move on
to a test of the post functionality and am having problems.
I can't get a test.client.Client.post()s raw_post_data to match what I
get using my browser and the test throws an exception about reading
more than the available bytes.
Printing out the raw_post_data when my app is running under
'./manage.py runserver'
stderr.write( request.raw_post_data)
I see the following:
form-TOTAL_FORMS=2&form-INITIAL_FORMS=2&form-0-id=0&\
form-0-remove=on&form-1-id=2
That looks like what I expect from the docs:
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.1/topics/testing/
However, when I try to post in a test using the following code
raw_post =
'form-TOTAL_FORMS=2&form-INITIAL_FORMS=2&form-0-id=0&form-0-remove=on&form-1-id=2'
bits = raw_post.split('&')
post_data = {}
for x in bits:
k,v = x.split('=', 1)
post_data[k] = v
print post_data
c = Client()
response = c.post('/profile/sw/0/remove_packages/', post_data)
I get the following from the raw_post_data when running under
./manage.py test. What am I missing?
raw data coming up:
--BoUnDaRyStRiNg
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="form-0-remove"
on
--BoUnDaRyStRiNg
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="form-INITIAL_FORMS"
2
--BoUnDaRyStRiNg
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="form-0-id"
0
--BoUnDaRyStRiNg
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="form-1-id"
2
--BoUnDaRyStRiNg
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="form-TOTAL_FORMS"
2
--BoUnDaRyStRiNg--
<snip>
post_data looks like so (the order isn't the same but that shouldn't
matter, should it?):
{'form-0-remove': 'on', 'form-INITIAL_FORMS': '2', 'form-0-id': '0',
'form-1-id': '2', 'form-TOTAL_FORMS': '2'}
My code bails with the following exception:

read

from the HTTP incoming data."
AssertionError: Cannot read more than the available bytes from the HTTP
incoming data.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, is there a way to get the
output of print statements in my view visible while running the tests
or do I need to use a logger?
thank you,
Paul
