Crash analytic surge up when runner running testcases

Question

Background:
I am using Django2 and Sentry for detecting my crash. In my gitlab pipe line. I used to has test job as a major concern to not break any features when deploy new feature.

Many of my testcases contains Exception and Sentry does surge up.

Question:

Do I have any technique to suppress sentry for a while during pipeline running?

Answer 1

Well basically if there is a settings.py configuration that specify whether to send errors to Sentry, you could create a different one for test environment and turn off sentry logging. I currently use a separate test_settings.py file where I remove sentry (and related) from the INSTALLED_APPS. It works well enough for us.
