If you have some code that redirects like this…
def index(request):
return HttpResponseRedirect('/widget/create')
And you want to test it with assertRedirects() like this…
def test_widget_redirect(self)
response = self.client.get('/')
self.assertRedirects(response, '/widget/create')
And you can’t figure out why your test fails like this…
AssertionError: Couldn't retrieve redirection page '/widget/create': response
code was 301 (expected 200)
Then you should read this.
In short, add a trailing slash to your url.
'/widget/create/'
