django application selenium testing no static files

python django selenium

Instead of using LiveServerTestCase from django.test you can use StaticLiveServerTestCase from django.contrib.staticfiles.testing.

Notice not just the different class-name, but also the different module-name:

from django.test import LiveServerTestCase#     ^-- vs --vfrom django.contrib.staticfiles.testing import StaticLiveServerTestCase

python django selenium

Ok I found the solution. First I had to add in setting

STATIC_ROOT = 'my static dir'

then:

./manage.py collectstatic
