I'm implementing a fix for a ticket-26819 and need to add new models to test it.

The new models were added to tests/postgres_tests/models.py

but would like to know how to run the migrations before I run the tests.

Do I need to run the migrations explicitly or django run tests will take care of it?

Thanks,

Prem

Migrations will run automatically but you need to add the models to the migrations in tests/postgres_tests/migrations.

Thanks.

How do I run the migrations?

I tried python manage.py makemigrations but dont see the manage.py module anywhere.

You'll need to modify the migrations manually. Take a look at a previous commit on the migrations files for an example.

Looks like the test is running by default against sqllite. How do I run it against the postgres?
