[ckan-dev] Running tests that rely on a background job

Tue Jan 30 16:09:46 UTC 2018

Hello,

We have been working on a plugin for CKAN that takes a column in a
spreadsheet which signifies a location name (e.g. Birmingham) and maps that
to a geo polygon. We're at the point where we have refactored the mapping
into a background job and consequently our end-to-end tests are failing.

I was wondering if you had any advice on how to execute RQ background jobs
inline in tests?

The plugin is located here
https://github.com/CottageLabs/ckanext-string_to_location, we're using CKAN
2.7.2.

Any pointers are much appreciated.

Thanks,
Nevelina
