I'm using a Django Unit test to try and test a file download. It works as an API call, with a required token as a GET parameter, but nothing special. Code is:
from django.test.client import Client
c = Client()
base_url = str(sample_download_resource_uri) + '?token=' + str(account_token)
response = c.get(base_url)
if response.status_code != 200:
return False, "Status code for /download_attachment/XYZ/ is not 200"
The URL is something like: /download_attachment/1/ or /download_attachment/2/
Depending on the file ID.
When I try to run the unit test, in the line:
if response.status_code != 200:
I obtain the error: I/O exception on closed file.
I try the URL from the call in the browser and it works perfectly.
I'm not running the unit test through the tests.py file and tests command, instead using a Django view to remotely unit test the web server. But that shouldn't make a difference because all other non-download unit tests work, for both GET and POST commands.
