This class can be used to enable specific django caches for

Use the ENABLED_CACHES to list the names of caches that should
be enabled in the context of this TestCase. These caches will
use a loc_mem_cache with the default settings.
Set the class variable CACHES to explicitly specify the cache settings
that should be overridden. This class will insert those values into
django.conf.settings, and will reset all named caches before each
test.
