I'm using Django 1.3.0 with Python 2.7.1. In every test I write the following imports I get the importError above:

from django.utils import unittest
from django.test.client import Client

The full stack trace:

File "C:\Program Files (x86)\j2ee\plugins\org.python.pydev.debug_1.6.3.2010100513\pysrc\runfiles.py", line 342, in __get_module_from_strmod = __import__(modname)File "C:/Users/benjamin/workspace/BookIt/src/BookIt/tests\basic_flow.py", line 11, in from django.test.client import ClientFile "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\django\test\__init__.py", line 5, in from django.test.client import Client, RequestFactoryFile "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\django\test\client.py", line 21, in from django.test import signals
ImportError: cannot import name signals
ERROR: Module: basic_flow could not be imported.

Any ideas why this happening ?

@Hugo was right in that it was a settings.py problem. But I didn't had that problem when running through the Django environment. But when I wanted to run unit tests one by one (By using Pydev's run as unittest) it failed to run. What I needed to do was to add the Django settings module information, so for now what I'm doing is adding the following lines to my unit tests:

from django.core import management;
import BookIt.settings as settings;
management.setup_environ(settings)

This loads my Django project settings and allow me to run as regular unittest. If anyone has better suggestion on how to configure this more cleanly in Pydev please let me know.
