获取测试错误" Test data contained a dictionary value for key 'category'"

Question

为一个小API编写测试。测试GET方法是否工作，但对于create，正在调用一个错误。有什么问题吗?我可能猜错了数据格式。

class CoursesTest(APITestCase):
def setUp(self):
self.course_url = reverse('course-group')
User.objects.create(username='test111', password='123456')
def test_courses_post(self):
data = {
"name": "Blasssbla",
"description": "blabla",
"logo": "img",
"category": {
"name": "Baling",
"imgpath": "img"
},
"contacts": [
{
"status": 1
}
],
"branches": [
{
"latitude": "2131ssss2321",
"longitude": "12321321",
"address": "Osssssh"
}
]
}
self.response = self.client.post(self.course_url, data)
self.assertEqual(self.response.status_code, status.HTTP_201_CREATED)

错误:

AssertionError: Test data contained a dictionary value for key 'category', but multipart uploads do not support nested data. You may want to consider using format='json' in this test case.

Answer 1

如果您的测试数据是JSON，您应该将format="json"添加到self.client.post。

class CoursesTest(APITestCase):
def setUp(self):
self.course_url = reverse('course-group')
User.objects.create(username='test111', password='123456')
def test_courses_post(self):
data = {
"name": "Blasssbla",
"description": "blabla",
"logo": "img",
"category": {
"name": "Baling",
"imgpath": "img"
},
"contacts": [
{
"status": 1
}
],
"branches": [
{
"latitude": "2131ssss2321",
"longitude": "12321321",
"address": "Osssssh"
}
]
}
self.response = self.client.post(self.course_url, data, format="json")
self.assertEqual(self.response.status_code, status.HTTP_201_CREATED)
