What is the equivalent of assertDatabaseHas in Django?
Background from Laravel to learn Django. Forgive me if my question is childish.
response = self.client.delete(reverse('details'), kwargs={'pk':pk}, format="json")
self.assertEqual(response.status_code, status. HTTP_204_NO_CONTENT)
The above test passed, I want to go a step further and try to check if the database really has this item, of course I can query the database and try to match the count.
But in Laravel I use these methods to check for the presence/absence of a record.
assertDatabaseHas('users', ['id' => 10]); asserts true if record is present in users table.
assertDatabaseMissing('users', ['id' => 10]); asserts true if record is not present in users table
Is there something similar in Django?
Solution
There are no specific assertions about this.
You might be able to use a generic assertTrue and exists filter:
self.assertTrue(User.objects.filter(id=10).exists())
(Normally you would use get() for id queries, but this does not allow exists() and you must catch the DoesNotExist exception if not found.) )
