The existing pattern of using `override_settings(MODULESTORE=...)` prevented
us from having more than one layer of subclassing in modulestore tests.
In a structure like:
@override_settings(MODULESTORE=store_a)
class BaseTestCase(ModuleStoreTestCase):
def setUp(self):
# use store
@override_settings(MODULESTORE=store_b)
class ChildTestCase(BaseTestCase):
def setUp(self):
# use store
In this case, the store actions performed in `BaseTestCase` on behalf of
`ChildTestCase` would still use `store_a`, even though the `ChildTestCase`
had specified to use `store_b`. This is because the `override_settings`
decorator would be the innermost wrapper around the `BaseTestCase.setUp` method,
no matter what `ChildTestCase` does.
To remedy this, we move the call to `override_settings` into the
`ModuleStoreTestCase.setUp` method, and use a cleanup to remove the override.
Subclasses can just defined the `MODULESTORE` class attribute to specify which
modulestore to use _for the entire `setUp` chain_.
[PLAT-419]
This commit pulls in changes from #4487 that implements keyword
substitution for bulk emails. With these changes, an instructor can
include keywords in their bulk emails which will be automatically substituted
with the corresponding value for the recepient of the email. Keywords are
of the form %%keyword%%, and the keywords implemented in this commit include:
%%USER_ID%% => anonymous_user_id
%%USER_FULLNAME%% => user profile name
%%COURSE_DISPLAY_NAME%% => display name of the course
%%COURSE_END_DATE%% => end date of the course
Client-side validations have also been implemented to ensure that only emails
with well-formed keywords can be sent.
The architecture is designed such that adding in new keywords in the future
would be relatively straight-forward.
