Problem
When the execution order of tests are shuffled, if tests (polluters) that make modifications on the database run before tests (victims) that rely on the original/unmodified database, the database will be polluted and victim tests will fail with assertionError.
Involved tests:
The above are all order-dependent victim tests and they test the properties of database without modification.
Take
TestExistsWithPrimaryKey.testDynamicExistsWithPrimaryKeyas an example:It expects
countrywithid=35exists in the database but it actually fails with assertionError if polluter tests that delete/modify thecountrywithid=35in the database run before it.Proposed Fix
A simple and safe way to ensure victim tests can work as we expect is to reset/clean the database before executing such tests.
Glad to discuss this issue if you have concerns.
