Before Django 1.7 ``LiveServerTestCase`` used to rely on the In older versions, ``LiveServerTestCase`` relied on the :doc:`staticfiles

expected locations during the execution of these tests. the :class:`~django.contrib.staticfiles.testing.StaticLiveServerTestCase`
subclass, so use that subclass if you need :ref:`the original behavior
<staticfiles-testing-support>`.

ability in this respect has been retrofitted to simply publish the contents
of the file system under :setting:`STATIC_ROOT` at the :setting:`STATIC_URL`

subclass shipped with it instead because it's the one that implements the
original behavior now. See :ref:`the relevant documentation
<staticfiles-testing-support>` for more details.
