No, the test client isn't a client for making web requests, it is a
client that creates phony request objects and simulates the
request/response inside of django itself. No network activity will
take place!

Just open it:

try:
r = urllib.urlopen(url).read()
except IOError:
...

Testing posts to S3

[Lee Hinde]

I'm using django storages/boto to push json files to s3 where they are to
be read by a different app.

I'd like to test the file push by using the Test Client to see if the file
is present on S3.

client = Client()
r = client.get(url, content_type="application/json")

In every case, r comes back as:



I can take the  'url' and paste it into my browser and get the file.

So, there's something about the process I'm not understanding. Is this not
what Client is intended for?
