# Testing

Warning

This page needs expanding and updating.

This page contains notes about Pootle’s unit tests and how they should be used, interpreted and expanded. See the Translate Toolkit testing docs for notes on writing tests.

Pootle’s unit tests use the Django testing framework, and can be executed with:

    $ python manage.py test pootle_store pootle_app pootle_translationproject

Although you can run tests for all applications, several of the external applications are not passing their tests which renders this less useful.

Tests could be run with `py.test` using pytest-django or alternately by adding a django-pytest app to Pootle (conceivably both could be done) – however this is not currently supported or implemented.
