How can I test encryption in Django?

You can test encryption in Django by using the built-in cryptographic signing and hashing functions. Would you like a code example?

Yes, please provide a code example for encrypting and decrypting data.

Sure! You can use Django's make_password and check_password functions for hashing. Here's a simple example:

from django.contrib.auth.hashers import make_password, check_password

# Encrypting data
password = 'my_secret_password'
encrypted_password = make_password(password)

# Decrypting data
is_correct = check_password('my_secret_password', encrypted_password)
print(is_correct)  # This will return True

What about testing the encryption in unit tests?

In your unit tests, you can use Django's test framework to assert that the encryption and decryption work as expected. You can create a test case that checks if the decrypted value matches the original.
