WARNING: WHEN USED INCORRECTLY THIS TEST RUNNER WILL DROP ALL TABLES IN YOUR PRODUCTION

DATABASE!!!

Heroku does not give users createdb/dropdb permissions, therefore Heroku CI cannot run tests for django.

In order to fix this, use this test runner instead which attempts to minimally override the

default test runner by a) forcing keepdb=True to stop database create/drop, and b) by dropping all

tables after a test run and resetting the database to its initial blank state.

Usage:

1. In your django test settings file add the following two lines to ensure that the test

database name is the same as the Heroku provided database name.

DATABASES['default'] = env.db('DATABASE_URL') # or whatever you use to load the Heroku database settings

DATABASES['default']['TEST'] = {'NAME': DATABASES['default']['NAME']}

2. Set the testrunner to this file

TEST_RUNNER = 'your_modules.HerokuDiscoverRunner'

3. Set an environment variable on heroku CI of IS_HEROKU_TEST=1 to enable this runner, otherwise

the runner will exit as a safety measure.
