This week, we have our hands full with a second round of Channel.org testing 👀

Our community team aren't technologists, but that's why their opinion is so important.

To pull down barriers to the open social web, we need to build technology which appeals to everyday users. That's why our community team are given the chance to get their hands on what we're building first.

I guest-blogged to update this article on "How to test your Unmanaged Django Model in the year 2024". (The original article was written for Django 1.2 in 2010). Let me know what you think about this approach.
