Django Rest Framework - How to test ViewSet?

Question

I\'m having trouble testing a ViewSet:

class ViewSetTest(TestCase):
    def test_view_set(self):
        factory = APIRequestFactory()
        view = CatViewSet.         


        

Answer 1

I found a way to do this without needing to manually create the right viewset and give it an action mapping:

from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse, resolve
...
url = reverse('cat-list')
req = factory.get(url)
view = resolve(url).func
response = view(req)
response.render()
