Chapter 1. Getting Django Set Up Using a Functional Test

Write tests first, implement coming later.

Before continue, read book and finish following:

• Installing Firefox, Git, geckodriver via apt
• Create conda environment to install "django<1.12" "selenium<4"

This chapter is about setting up working environment, as python tdd book is built around testing django testing framework

Steps of first simple test case

1. Create a simple functional test (FT) functional_test.py that verify browser title
2. Run the FT script, expected to fail, as http://localhost:8000 hasn't started
3. Getting Django Up and Running via $ django-admin.py startproject superlists .
4. Run Django server via python manage.py runserver
5. Activate virtulenv, and running FT again. Pass
