Change the default domain of Client() in unittest of Django

Question

I am writing a unit test for Django views.

class TestLog(unittest.TestCase):
    """Test for Contact"""
    def setUp(self):
        self.c = Client()
        try:
            self.bob = User.objects.create_user("mojo","[email protected]", "bmojo")
        except :
            print ''

    def test_get_emails(self):
        response = self.c.get('/text/')
        self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200)


    def test_htmlemils(self):
        response = self.c.get('/emails/html/upload')
        self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200)

The c = Client() takes the 'http://testserver' as domain which i want to overwrite ,i want to add my real domain in that test client ,is their way to customize the test Client ?

Answer 1

Django's Client extends RequestFactory so you should be able to pass in extra params as keyword arguments.

Try:

response = self.c.get('/emails/html/upload', SERVER_NAME="mydomain.com")
