django registration test fails on test_get_version

Also, what is this test for anyway?

FAIL: test_get_version (registration.tests.RegistrationVersionInfoTests)

Traceback (most recent call last):

Solution

  • The purpose of the test is to check that the get_version function in the registration/__init.py module works.

    I had a quick look at the source code for get_version and the failing test (version 0.8), and it looks like a bug to me. There's a pull request about the issue on bitbucket.
