Visual Studio Test Explorer For Python Django Tests with Database Access

问题

Starting test runs from Visual Studio Test Explorer doesn't call database creation and Django setup() before running the test(s).

My current workaround is to call something like this, which I keep in config.settings.test

def setUpTestingWithDatabase():
    import os
    from django.test.utils import setup_test_environment
    from django import setup
    os.environ["DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE"] = "config.settings.test"
    setup_test_environment()
    setup()

by adding this code to the top of every test file:

import sys
if not ('manage.py' in sys.argv):
    from config.settings.test import setUpTestingWithDatabase
    setUpTestingWithDatabase()

This works, and can still use the nose runner, and a CLI call like

> python manage.py test myApp

This works all very well, but I would like to avoid this code, keep it vanilla AND use it from both CLI and Test Explorer. MS Visual Studio supports runsettings, and I wonder if they can be used? Any other ideas?
