Description

Attempted to run the gis_tests today. Ran into the django-docker-box ​issue that depends on a refactor in Django itself, so opening a ticket here to track that work.

Essentially, Tom Forbes proposes committing MaxMind test data to the django repo to enable the test_geoip2 to run without having to download the city and country test files. Looking at the PR, a small refactor was also necessary to enable using @override_settings to point to the files.

In a93375e8:

Fixed #34305 -- Changed GeoIP2 tests to use MaxMind test databases.

GEOIP_SETTINGS is removed from the global scope as this prevents
modifications to the settings using @override_settings in tests.

Additional improvements now that we have stable test databases include:

  • Made testing more comprehensive and improved coverage
  • Patched socket.gethostbyname() for whole test case
  • Added testing of non-free GeoIP2 databases
