---------------------------------+--------------------
Every test in my tests suite for {{{ some_string in response.context}}
fails with the same exception "TypeError: Type str doesn't support the
buffer API".
Fails for both Django 1.7 and Django 1.8
Example code:
{{{
response = self.client.get(self.wg1.get_absolute_url())
self.assertFalse("archive_modal" in response.content)
}}}
Corresponding traceback:
{{{
======================================================================
ERROR: test_manager_can_archive
(aristotle_mdr.tests.test_workgroups.WorkgroupMemberTests)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/travis/build/aristotle-mdr/aristotle-metadata-
registry/aristotle_mdr/tests/test_workgroups.py", line 192, in
test_manager_can_archive
self.assertFalse("archive_modal" in response.content)
TypeError: Type str doesn't support the buffer API
