Comment:

 Thanks for this report, however it is not a valid usage of the
 `override_settings()` decorator (see
 
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/testing/tools/#django.test.override_settings
 documentation]). You can simulate the absence of a setting, but you cannot
 modify it partially with `override_settings()`. You should rather create a
 local copy and override the setting e.g.
 {{{

     def test_access_callback_azure(self):
         ...
         auth_adfs_setting = settings.AUTH_ADFS.copy()
         del auth_adfs_setting["SERVER"]
         with self.settings(AUTH_ADFS=auth_adfs_setting):
              ...
 }}}
