• UnitTest bug fixed with help from my tutor # django_heroku.settings(locals()) this line was the culprit for causing bug above this comment, I included it with the django-heroku package, i was using this as it provides a quick way to set up DATABASE_URL, ALLOWED_HOSTS, WhiteNoise (for static assets), Logging, and Heroku CI for your application. I have now decided to go with the standard approach as this should go towards my learning
• Testing of the comment model and post detail views performed
