How can I test Django views effectively?

To test Django views effectively, you can use Django's built-in test framework. Start by importing the necessary modules and creating test cases.

What are some best practices for writing these tests?

Some best practices include using the Client class for simulating requests, testing both GET and POST methods, and checking for expected responses.

Can you show me an example of a test case?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

from django.test import TestCase, Client

class MyViewTests(TestCase):
    def setUp(self):
        self.client = Client()

    def test_view_status_code(self):
        response = self.client.get('/my-url/')
        self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200)
