Run test suite against Django 1.8 about django-authtools HOT 4 CLOSED

An experiment https://github.com/moreati/django-tests, so far unpublished on PyPI

from django-authtools.

Hi,

I think that these are all good ideas, but there is one problem that has
been bugging me for a while.

Lots of Django's auth tests are wrapped in a skipIfCustomUser (or
something like that), which actually means that lots of the tests don't
actually run when we are using custom User models.

We were thinking about just copying the tests into django-authtools and
editing them to remove the skipIfCustomUser decorations, but I think the
maintenance burden of that is a bit larger than we really want to take on.
We also lose the security upgrade guarantees that are provided by relying
directly on Django's tests.

What do you think?

From a cursory grep, that might not be the case in Django 1.8.x

alex:~/src/django-tests $ ag "skipIfCustomUser"
vendor/django/django/contrib/auth/tests/utils.py
6:def skipIfCustomUser(test_func):

vendor/django/docs/topics/auth/customizing.txt
908:``django.contrib.auth.tests.utils`` defines a ``@skipIfCustomUser`` decorator.
933:    from django.contrib.auth.tests.utils import skipIfCustomUser
939:        @skipIfCustomUser

from django-authtools.

Done in #56 , merged, released in 1.4.0.
