Hello,

I recently started contributing to the mssql-django project (https://github.com/microsoft/mssql-django), and I'm not able to run specific tests included in that project, locally. My goal is to be able to debug some of broken tests, while I try to make some modifications to the code.

I can run specific tests that are included in the Django project tests (in the django folder created by following the contributing file instructions https://github.com/microsoft/mssql-django/blob/dev/CONTRIBUTING.md). I can NOT run tests individually (or debug) that are specific to the mssql-django project.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you very much

Hi

This is a bit off topic for this list - mssql-django is not an official Django project. I suggest you contact the maintainers of that project at Microsoft, perhaps through GitHub discussions/issues or email.

Thanks,

Adam

I see what you mean, but according to this page (https://github.com/microsoft/mssql-django/blob/dev/SUPPORT.md), I thought I would find an answer here.

Thank you.

I don't think Microsoft have the right to claim this as their discussion forum - they've been welcome to post about development in the past, but there are 11k people subscribed to this list interested in Django, very few in MS SQL.

I agree with you.

Hi All,

As a project admin for mssql-django, I agree with the above sentiment. The support.md policy of the project has now removed the mention of this Google group, and we will look to better direct users to the Github issues of mssql-django as the primary support channel.
