testing issue #15

Open greut opened 7 years ago

greut commented 7 years ago

The hack to put the application within the project, doesn't play well with testing. Do you have any clue to improve this situation? I have to the put the full module name in INSTALLED_APPS instead.

@greut yes, that's a known problem. To avoid that, you'd have to use absolute imports in your tests instead e.g. from games.models import Game.

I might remove the apps hack eventually as I'm not sure it adds much at this point.
