I am working in Django 1.8. I have a Django management command to create materialized views on my database, as follows:
python manage.py create_db_matviews $DB_NAME $DB_USER $DB_PASS
Now I want to run the management command from inside my tests, so that I can test the command. (My actual database is extremely large, and the management command is extremely slow, so I would like to test it on test data, rather than real data.)
However calling the management command from inside my test file does not work - unsurprisingly since I have no idea what credentials to use:
def setUpModule():
management.call_command('loaddata', 'frontend/fixtures/mydata.json',
verbosity=0)
# load fixtures, then...
management.call_command('create_db_matviews',
'default', 'default', 'randomguess',
verbosity=0)
It fails as follows:
Creating test database for alias 'default' ('test_prescribing')...
... running migrations...

What credentials should I use to get access to the test database?
This section of the Django docs has the details.
Basically the name of the test database is as per your settings file but with test_
prefixed, and the user and password are as your settings file.
