Skip redis tests if unable to communicate with the server.
If the redis module is in the test environment, the redis tests will
not be skipped. If connecting to redis during testing fails with a
ConnectionError because there is no redis server at localhost, or if
it fails with an AuthenticationError, you would fail a slew of tests.
This causes the tests to report as skipped if either of the two errors
occurs. It is very inefficient as it fails in setup() for the tests,
but at least it does report skipping the tests.
Also documented how to pass the redis password to the tests in the
test part of the install docs. Future note: running tests needs proper
docs in development.txt (including database setup) and a link left to
that doc in installation.txt.

.. index:: postgres; deployment notes ========================== PostgreSQL/psycopg Backend ========================== This are notes about PostqreSQL backend based on the psycopg adapter for Roundup issue tracker. Prerequisites ============= To use PostgreSQL as backend for storing roundup data, you should additionally install: 1. PostgreSQL_ 8.x or higher 2. The psycopg_ python interface to PostgreSQL_ Note that you currently need at least version 2.8 of psycopg_ -- the postgresql backend will work with 2.7 but if you're using the native postgresql indexer you need at least 2.8. Also if you want to run the tests, these also need 2.8. If your distribution has an older version we suggest that you install into a python virtual environment. .. _psycopg: https://www.psycopg.org/ .. _PostgreSQL: https://www.postgresql.org/ Running the PostgreSQL unit tests ================================= The user that you're running the tests as will need to be able to access the postgresql database on the local machine and create and drop databases. See the config values in 'test/db_test_base.py' about which database connection, name and user will be used.
