Hi-ho python peeps,
Would anyone be interested in a dojo / worksop on the topic of test-driven Django development, with Selenium?
I've been working on a tutorial on the topic (<
https://github.com/hjwp/Test-Driven-Django-Tutorial> *) . I'm not claiming to be a massive expert, but it's what I've learned at work over the last
year or so, so it's fresh in my mind... I'm pretty sure I could get a couple of (ex?) colleagues to help present...
Would be aimed at beginners / people who don't know Selenium / people who want to learn Django the "right" way / people who want to learn TDD... If
you already know Django and Selenium back to front, it would probably be of less interest, although there may be some interesting discussions around integrating the Django test runner, WebDriver vs Selenium-RC etc...
So, trying to get an idea of numbers - would anyone be interested? London area, venue suggestions also gratefully accepted...

* work in progress! for example, the .jar file really isn't necessary...

This could be highly relevant for us and of my clients. Possibly 5
people from us if the timing is right.
Regrettably we don't have physical space for it right now (and are way outside the centre of London)

That sounds like a great idea.

I think you'd get very good turnout for this (I'd be interested for a start). How long did you think it would last (1-2hrs or longer)? Will it be free or will you charge?
There are a number of venues in London that could host depending on numbers and what you have planned.
cheers, Bruce

Hey Andy, Bruce,
Wow, charging for it, hadn't even thought of that! No, I think I'd be very
happy to do it for free... Maybe when I get a bit more bored of it all I'll demand some compensation ;-)
In terms of timing, I'm really not sure yet. My objective would be to try and track the django tutorial, which involves the admin site, 3 simple views
and a couple of forms... I'll have to think through how it would all work... if it was a workshop, maybe I'd have a repo with some pre-prepared branches everyone can pull from, and work through together as we add bits of
code, before moving onto the next one...
How much time do you guys think people could stand? We'd need a proper break if it was any longer than 1.5 hours... And any longer than 3 hours would probably be too much...
testing topics I'd want to cover: - an automated FT runner - keep production and test data separate - selenium API: find_elements_by_id, find_element_by_css_selector, etc etc - unit tests and the django test runner
- the django (unit) test client - mocking - why test, anyway? and what to test?
django topics I'd want to cover: - manage.py commands: startproject, startapp, syncdb, runserver, loaddata - the admin site
- models - views - templates - forms
nice-to-haves: - javascript - transactions - south
lots for me to think about! Do you guys think anything is missing?

Hey Harry,
I'm also interested in this, depending on where you decide to run it :)
