Mezzanine ImportError when running tests

Question

I have recently upgraded the version of Django from 1.5.5 to 1.6.2 and Mezzanine to 3.0.9.

When I run

python manage.py test

All the tests run without problem.

But When I run project specific tests using

python manage.py test <project-name>

Then I get ImportError. I get that its something to do with Circular Imports.

Here is the stack trace. Please help.

Answer 1

django-debug-toolbar module was causing the issue.

I rolled back from django-debug-toolbar v1.0.1 to v0.11.

This fixed the error.
