A mock testcase:
def testCount(self):
qs = Test.objects.all()
qs = qs.annotate(a_count=Count('a_items'), b_count=Count('b_items'))
for item in qs:
print 'a_count: %d, b_count: %d' % (item.a_count, item.b_count)
qs1 = qs.filter(Q(a_count__gt=0))
self.assertEquals(qs1.count(), 1)
qs2 = qs.filter(Q(a_count__gt=0) | Q(b_count__gt=0))
self.assertEquals(qs2.count(), 1)
Output:
a_count: 1, b_count: 0
a_count: 0, b_count: 0
...
FAIL: testCount
self.assertEquals(qs2.count(), 1)
AssertionError: 0 != 1
Why does the | operator change the behavior like this and how do I fix it?
