To verify Django settings with pytest, you can follow these steps:

  1. Install pytest-django: You need to install pytest-django plugin to use it with pytest. Run this command in your virtual environment:

    pip install pytest-django
    
  2. Create a pytest configuration file: You need to create a pytest.ini file in your project's root directory and configure DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE to point to your Django project's settings file.

    [pytest]
    DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=myproject.settings
    
  3. Create test cases: Write test cases using pytest syntax to verify Django settings. For example, to test if your project name is correctly set in settings, create a test file like this:

    def test_project_name(settings):
       assert settings.PROJECT_NAME == 'My Project'
    
  4. Run tests: Run tests using pytest. It will automatically discover and run tests in your project.

    pytest
    

That's it! You can now use pytest to verify Django settings in your project.
