Running tests outside the test runner
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you want to run tests outside of ``./manage.py test`` -- for example,
from a shell prompt -- you will need to set up the test
environment first. Django provides a convenience method to do this::
>>> from django.test.utils import setup_test_environment
>>> setup_test_environment()
This convenience method sets up the test database, and puts other
Django features into modes that allow for repeatable testing.
The call to :meth:`~django.test.utils.setup_test_environment` is made
automatically as part of the setup of `./manage.py test`. You only
need to manually invoke this method if you're not using running your
tests via Django's test runner.
