It seems like pinning model mommy to this PR has fixed the issue.
This project is to replicate a strange bug that happens when you're using Faker with a Model Bakery Recipe and trying to seed the faker data to have consistent results in your assertions.
Tests in tests/test_recipes.py illustrate the bug. Versions less than 1.3.2 work and version greater than 1.3.3 don't
work. All the tests fail randomly, so you have to run them multiple times to see if they work or don't work
(e.g. for i in {1..20}; do pytest tests/test_recipes.py::TestFakerSeeding::test_faker_seeding_from_global; done).
Facts:
- Model Bakery versions 1.1.1 to 1.3.2 work with Django versions 3.2, 4.0, and 4.1.
- Model Bakery version 1.3.3 and greater don't work with Django versions 3.2 and 4.0
- Model Bakery version 1.3.3 and Django 4.1 work
- When you run individual tests multiple times they randomly pass and fail
(e.g.
for i in {1..20}; do pytest tests/test_recipes.py::TestFakerSeeding::test_faker_seeding_from_global; done) - When using just Faker with seeding, but without using a Model Baker Recipe it passes 100% of the time.
- Added a wrapper function that seems to work with all versions of model-bakery and Django. I'm not sure how this would if you have your recipes in baker_recipes.py files.
Things tried:
- Upgrading to the newest version of Faker
- Upgrading to Django 4.1.1 fixed it
- Tried upgrading to model-bakery 1.7.0 and that didn't fix it
- When using
@pytest.mark.parametrize("num", list(range(1, 11)))on each test method, they either all pass or all fail - Tried downgrading to pytest 6.2.5 from 7.1.3, and it didn't fix it
- Tried comparing Model Bakery 1.3.2 to 1.3.3, however, it's not clear why the changes would break anything.
- Tried resetting the global state before seeding (see the test: test_faker_instance_seeding_from_reset_global)
- Tried adding a test using partial, but it randomly fails as well (see the test: test_recipe_with_partial_wrapper)
Strangely enough trying to reproduce the same bug in a fork of model_bakery didn't produce any results. Probably because test is using Django 4.1. See: https://github.com/epicserve/model_bakery/compare/main...epicserve:model_bakery:bug/faker_seeding_bug?expand=1
