I have a view for creating blog posts which redirects the user to a form to fill the blog post content like this:
from django.views import View
from app.models import BlogPost
class CreateBlogPost(View):
def post():
new_post = BlogPost.objects.create()
return redirect(reverse('post_edit'), args=[new_post.id])
class EditBlogPost(View):
...
And my urls are the following:
from django.urls import path
from app.views import CreateBlogPost
urlpatterns = [
path('post', CreateBlogPost.as_view(), name='post_create'),
path('post/<int:pk>/edit', EditBlogPost.as_view(), name='post_edit')
]
I would like to: test the CreateBlogPost by asserting that it redirects to post/<some_id>/edit.
I've tried: using the method assertRedirects from django's SimpleTestCase, but couldn't find a way to make this work.
I'm also using pytest-django, in case that's relevant.
