6,367 Pointscourse detail test: NoReverseMatch
Im trying to write my own test for course_detail, but every time i try to run it i get the error:
'django.core.urlresolvers.NoReverseMatch: Reverse for 'detail' with arguments '()' and keyword arguments '{}' not found.'
class CourseViewsTests(TestCase):
def setUp(self):
self.course = Course.objects.create(
title="Python Testing",
description="Learn to write tests in Python"
)
self.course2 = Course.objects.create(
title="New Course",
description="A new course"
)
self.step = Step.objects.create(
title="Introduction to Doctests",
description="Learn to write tests in your docstrings.",
course = self.course
)
def test_course_list_view(self):
resp = self.client.get(reverse('courses:list'))
self.assertEqual(resp.status_code, 200)
self.assertIn(self.course, resp.context['courses'])
self.assertIn(self.course2, resp.context['courses'])
def test_course_detail_view(self):
resp = self.client.get(reverse('courses:detail'))
self.assertEqual(resp.status_code, 200)
self.assertIn(self.course, resp.context['course'])
self.assertIn(self.course2, resp.context['course'])

You can add a pk to your url like this:
reverse('your_url:here', kwargs={'pk': pk_value_here})
