Test utils

JWT allauth provides a custom JATestCase that simplifies the authentication process in your django tests.

  • Default user loaded in the database. The user info is defined in the EMAIL, PASS, FIRST_NAME and LAST_NAME attributes. The user model object is available at the USER attribute.

  • Staff user loaded in the database. The user info is defined in the STAFF_EMAIL, STAFF_PASS, STAFF_FIRST_NAME and STAFF_LAST_NAME attributes. The user model object is available at the STAFF_USER attribute.

  • JAClient client accessible via JATestCase.ja_client property.

    • JSON content type automatically set.

    • Bearer access token configurable via the access_token parameter in the get, post, patch and put methods.

    • JATestCase.USER automatic authentication through the auth_get, auth_post, auth_patch and auth_put methods.

    • JATestCase.STAFF_USER automatic authentication through the staff_get, staff_post, staff_patch and staff_put methods.

Usage example

from jwt_allauth.test import JATestCase
from django.urls import reverse

class ExampleTest(JATestCase):

    def test_patch_user_details(self):
        payload = {"first_name": "other name"}
        self.assertNotEqual(self.USER.first_name, payload["first_name"])
        resp = self.ja_client.auth_patch(reverse("rest_user_details"), data=payload)
        self.assertEqual(resp.status_code, 200)
        self.assertEqual(resp.data["first_name"], payload["first_name"])
