python - Testing Flask web app with unittest POST Error 500 -


this test.py file:

import unittest, views, json  class flasktestcase(unittest.testcase):  def setup(self):     self.app = views.app.test_client()  def test_index(self):     rv = self.app.get('/')     assert 'hamptons bank' in rv.data  def test_credit(self):     response = self.app.post('/credit', data=json.dumps({             'amount': '20',             'account': '1'         }), content_type='application/json')      print response.data     assert 'deposit of 20 account 1' in response.data   if __name__ == '__main__':      unittest.main() 

the test_index method works fine, self.app.post keeps returning (in print response.data):

<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 3.2 final//en"> <title>500 internal server error</title> <h1>internal server error</h1> <p>the server encountered internal error , unable complete request. either server overloaded or there error in application.</p> 

the method in views.py following:

@app.route('/credit', methods=['post']) def credit_account():   bank = bank()    amount = int(request.json["amount"])   depositcommand = depositcommand(find_account(request.json["account"]), amount)   bank.execute(depositcommand)    message = "deposit of " + str(request.json["amount"]) + " account "+str(request.json["account"])   return message 

what doing wrong?

this first time testing flask web app, still bit confused!

thank :-)

(from comment above): when testing, should set app.config['debug'] = true , app.config['testing'] = true.
