We find this is several places in this section 6.
Maybe it was written before this method was added to the TestCase class?

Comment:

Our [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.0/internals/contributing/writing-
code/coding-style/#python-style Python style] describes why we prefer
`assertIs(..., True/False)`:

> Use `assertIs(…, True/False)` for testing boolean values, rather than
`assertTrue()` and `assertFalse()`, so you can check the actual boolean
value, not the truthiness of the expression.
