Описание: Test-Driven Development (TDD) simplifies the trickiest of software tasks with its unique ability to peel back problems into layers. The testing tools available in Python and Django make test writing a joy, and the full coverage test suite that results from TDD is a boon to any project.

This guide to developing with Django takes a test-first approach: write a test, then write enough production code to get it to pass. You'll quickly get hands-on experience, writing tests for a database-driven application with the TDD methodology. Use this book to build the skills and habits that make testing a regular part of your workflow.

What You Will Learn

- Use the red-green-refactor TDD cycle to create and refine your code by changing tests first
- Test integrations with external APIs by testing their documentation
- Mock out calls to external services and internal functions
- Explore the basics of documentation-driven API design
- Other testing tools available in popular Python packages such as Django REST framework and VCR.py
