What's a "fixture"?

A *fixture* is a collection of files that contain the serialized contents of

Compressed fixtures
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fixtures may be compressed in ``zip``, ``gz``, or ``bz2`` format. For example::
django-admin.py loaddata mydata.json
would look for any of ``mydata.json``, ``mydata.json.zip``,
``mydata.json.gz``, or ``mydata.json.bz2``. The first file contained within a
zip-compressed archive is used.

``mydata.xml.gz`` were found in the same fixture directory), fixture
installation will be aborted, and any data installed in the call to
