I'm still on the fence with fixtures as true "unit tests", although they are tremendously valuable, but kinda clunky. I don't think that unit tests are platform specific; it is more important to test things that affect the functionality and performance of the application, any application on any platform, and not be too worried about an affiliation with a platform. I plan to experiment more with django's fixtures packages, but time has been at a premium lately. I hop this helps. If you have further questions don't hesitate! i believe I would test through the model at first.

I've learned how to test with django's implemented facilities but one thing is still vague. I am aware of the importance to develop test driven, but i haven't come to bring it to reality and so i am still lost about what exactly to test, when it comes to developing a django project. Your example is pretty straight forward but somehow still not directly affiliated with django. Are there any things one has to test specifically when developing with django, like redirects etc.? How would you proceed when tackling database dependent functions? Thanks for your “testing with django” in a nutshell.
