I use Postgres for production and development, but I'd like to use sqlite to run some tests. I don't see an easy way to configure one engine for tests and another for dev / production. Am I missing something?

By default, the configuration uses SQLite. If you're new to databases, or you're just interested in trying Django, this is the easiest choice. SQLite is included in Python, so you won't need to install anything else to support your database.
Writing tests Django's unit tests use a Python standard library module: unittest . This module defines tests using a class-based approach.
Append the following lines in your settings:
import sys if 'test' in sys.argv or 'test_coverage' in sys.argv: #Covers regular testing and django-coverage DATABASES['default']['ENGINE'] = 'django.db.backends.sqlite3' Make sure your actual database setting comes before them.
