django Basics Section 6, test-our-article-detail-template

Question

Hello everyone,

I can't seem to get my tests to pass on this code challenge, and I'm unsure why.

I am able to pass the first part of the code challenge, assuming I remove the faulty code for the second part before submitting my answer, since that makes the challenge return a fail.

Unfortunately, it's the second part of the challenge that I have so far been unable to pass.

Any help on why my code is failing would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

articles/tests.py

import datetime

from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse
from django.test import TestCase

from .models import Article, Writer

class ArticleDetailViewTestCase(TestCase):
    '''Tests for the Article detail view'''

    def setUp(self):
        self.writer = Writer.objects.create(
            name='Kenneth Love',
            email='kenneth@teamtreehouse.com',
            bio='Your friendly, local Python teacher'
        )
        self.article = Article.objects.create(
          writer=self.writer,
          headline='Article 0',
          content='Something about 0',
          publish_date=datetime.datetime.today()
        )

    def test_detail_template(self):
        '''Make sure the `articles/article_detail.html` template is used'''
        resp = self.client.get(reverse('articles:detail', kwargs={"pk":self.article.pk}))
        self.assertTemplateUsed(resp, 'articles/article_detail.html')

    def test_detail_template_writer(self):
        '''Make sure the article writer's name is in the rendered output'''
        resp = self.client.get(reverse('articles:writer', kwargs={"pk":self.writer.pk}))
        self.assertContains(resp, self.writer.name)

articles/templates/articles/article_detail.html

{% extends 'base.html' %}

{% block content %}
<h1>{{ article.title }}</h1>
<time>{{ article.publish_date }}</time>
<p>By {{ article.writer.name }}</p>
{{ article.content }}
{% endblock %}

Your very close. In the second test we are still doing the response on "articles:details" now just looking if it contains the writers name. Your "resp" would still be the same as the first test case. resp = self.client.get(reverse('articles:detail', kwargs={"pk":self.article.pk}))

Hope that helps.
