How to use Informix database and run automated scripts in Django Framework?

[kanika Gupta]

Hi,

I am a newbie to Django and Python. 

I am trying to find out a way in which I can retrieve data from our Informix database and run my BDDs in Pycharm using Django Framework. 

At the moment we are using Mock data using SQLite and we want to use live data for our tests.

I was thinking PostgreSQL, is that a solution? If so, then why? And how do I use it? or anything else I can use?

Any pointers would be really helpful.

Thanks,

Kanika.
