class MainPageTests(TestCase):
@classmethod
def setUpClass(cls):

Whats wrong?
Ricky White RP Team on May 10, 2020
Hi Aqhail Mihailov, Can you share the code for the two tests you have that are failing? The TemplateDoesNotExist error could mean that you haven’t set your template file path in you settings.py file correctly, too.
Hiren Kamat on June 5, 2020
I see the Django version used is 1.5/1.8 which looks old. Is there any plans to update the same? Thanks
Dan Bader RP Team on June 5, 2020
Yep, we’re planning to update Part 2 and Part 3 once the refresh for Part 1 (Python Basics) has been completed.
Hiren Kamat on June 7, 2020
Cool. Thanks a lot Dan. Any approx date in mind? It would be helpful to know.
olie on Oct. 16, 2022
Are there still plans to update this looks like it was written in 2016
You must own this product to join the conversation.
