session backed form wizard

[David Durham, Jr.]

Hi all,

I posted a patch for django.contrib.formtools.wizard that adds a
SessionWizard class. I'd like to know if there's any interest in
apply this or a similar patch, and if so I'll work on tests and
documentation.

Thanks,

I see this pattern a lot, and I guess it will be quite useful - I was
just thinking about writing someting like this class myself.
I have marked the ticked as "Need Docs" and "Need tests", and the status as DDN.

So I'm working on tests for this, and I can see the pattern for
writing tests by looking at django.contrib.formtools.tests.py, but I
don't see what the infrastructure is, if any, for running these tests.
The documentation here doesn't seem to have the info I need

http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/testing/

Thanks,
Dave

I did find more information here:

http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/

But this method appears to only run the tests in tests, not the tests
in django/contrib/formtools/tests. Is that correct? If so, is there
a different means of running tests in a tests.py file within a
package?

Thanks,
Dave

Nevermind. I see the reference to testing contrib apps in the contributing doc.

I think I'm pretty much done with what I plan to do with this ticket:

http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/9200

Unless anyone else has comments or suggestions that could improve its
chances of actually making it into contrib.

Thanks,

Dave
