Description
I have a Django 1.6.6 project that is not loading fixtures from relative paths using Python 2.7.8 on Windows 8.1. Works just fine in Linux.
Example Test Case:
# cart/tests.py
class CartTestBase(TestCase):
fixtures = ['products/fixtures/product_categories.json',
'products/fixtures/brands.json', 'products/fixtures/products.json']
Which fits into a directory structure of:
ecomm_app/
cart/
init.py
models.py
tests.py
. . .
products/
fixtures/
products/fixtures/product_categories.json
products/fixtures/brands.json
products/fixtures/products.json
init.py
models.py
. . .
The specific error message is:
UserWarning: No fixture named 'products/fixtures/products' found.
warnings.warn("No fixture named '%s' found." % fixture_name)
The corresponding app modules are listed in INSTALLED_APPS and work fine otherwise. Specifying an absolute path does work, but obviously isn't cross-platform. Specifying a root-relative path does not work, e.g.: /products/fixtures/brands.json
Moving the fixtures to /cart/fixtures/ and referencing them by name only works.
