CA Django Tests

About

This specialized skill streamlines the development and verification of Django tests within Consumer Affairs (CA) repositories, prioritizing a strict 100% code coverage standard. It provides comprehensive guidance on test structure, ranging from choosing the correct base classes and mocking external dependencies to implementing isolation patterns for every function and logic branch. By leveraging the 'ca magictest' command and focusing on exhaustive path coverage—including happy paths, edge cases, and error conditions—it helps developers proactively identify untested code and maintain high-quality codebases that seamlessly pass CI requirements.
