why does django user require create database privlages for testing

[dacresni]

Rails doesn't require this, you create a test database as super user and it uses it for testing. Why doesn't django allow this?

Because virtually all of us don't want our production database used for testing.

If you don't want to setup a test db with permissions for a test app,
use sqlite. I can't see why you'd ever want to give your web app carte
blanc permissions to run all over your db server.

Seems to me "you create a test database as super user" is the same as
changing to a db admin user, creating a db and auth for access to that db.

Thanks,
