Intellj python test: run individual Django tests

I have Django application inside IntelliJ IDE.
I can run all Django tests by calling the Django Tests runner.
But:
This is a time consuming and not ideal for development, where you would like to rerun one test that fail, and not run all 1000 others that are ok.
IntelliJ has options (UI) to run one test quickly, but this run python tests runner.
I add DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=... inside, but now I get other errors:
django.core.exceptions.AppRegistryNotReady: Apps aren't loaded yet.
I was looking to solve this error and I only found :
import django
django.setup()
inside Settings.py
My problem with this is:
I think this breaks normal behaviour of the app. App works normal for different environments.
It doesn't call code after this setup inside settings, so secret_key and others are not installed
This doesn't seam to be really related to tests, but is changing the whole app.
So, I am looking for some settings, how to set the normal python tests, so that they will run as django tests.
EDIT:
Now I change some thinks around and do:
Separate Settings for test
Do all the imports and then django.setup()
Now I get different error:

AUTH_USER_MODEL = "accounts.User"

To open a python terminal with the Django environment set run
python manage.py shell
Then, for example, a new user can be created with the create_user() helper function:
>>> from django.contrib.auth.models import User
>>> user = User.objects.create_user('john', 'lennon#thebeatles.com', 'johnpassword')
# At this point, user is a User object that has already been saved
# to the database. You can continue to change its attributes
# if you want to change other fields.
>>> user.last_name = 'Lennon'
>>> user.save()
The example code below shows how to add a user from a script. Note that you need to replace 'project.settings' on line 2 with your project name.
project.setting points at your project file where installed apps, middleware, templates, etc are specified.
import os
os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE','project.settings')
import django
django.setup()
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
super_user = User.objects.create_user(username = 'john',
first_name = 'John',
last_name = 'Doe',
email = 'john.doe#mail.com',
password = 'test',
is_staff = True,
is_superuser=True
)
More information in the documentation docs.djangoproject.com

On setting:
wsgi.py
Check if it is pointing to the right setting path:
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "path/to/settings.py")

Try out the following:
As mentioned in the above answer, ensure that the following line is present in wsgi.py
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "/path/to/settings.py")
Ensure that above path is correct or the mentioned settings file in above line is the actual settings file.
Since you are using Pycharm, the above error could because cause of some issue with the Pycharm environment variable. Try python manage.py flush.
If the issue still persists, have a look at the environment configuration in the Pycharm settings and check for any discrepancy.

Restructure default hierarchy of Django project, moving all apps into a folder with custom model

I am trying to move all the apps that I have in my Django application to a folder call apps:
The structure that I have right now is:
miApp
-accounts #App folder
-participation #App folder
-administration #App folder
-miapp
--wsgi.py
--urls.py
--settings
---development.py
---production.py
---__init__.py
-static
And I would like to have something like this
miApp
-apps #New folder for the apps
--accounts #App folder
--reputation #App folder
--participation #App folder
--administration #App folder
--__init__.py
-miApp
--wsgi.py
--urls.py
--settings
---common.py #Common settings for develpment and production
---development.py
---production.py
---__init__.py
-static
...
I tried already to move them all to the same folder,
I did the following change in miApp.urls
path('', views.inicio, name='inicio'),
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
path('cuentas/', include('apps.accounts.urls')),
path('participation/', include('apps.participation.urls')),
path('administracion/', include('apps.administration.urls')),
And also this, in the settings of common.py
DJANGO_APPS = ['django.contrib.admin',

I have the following in apps.accounts.apps.py

I think that's not a good practice to move apps folders this way but did you try to add a __init__.py file in apps?
miApp
-apps #New folder for the apps
--accounts #App folder
--reputation #App folder
--participation #App folder
--administration #App folder
--__init__.py
EDIT
Ithink the problem is the location of your apps.py file. From what you have in INSTALLED_APPS, it tries to get your config classes from an apps.py in every app folder.
Check this answer, the guy describes exactly what you're trying to do.
Really make sure you have the __init__.py file inside your apps folder and inside each app folder.
Move your apps
Change your prefix your apps in INSTALLED_APPS and urls.py by apps.

The problem was that as I am using a custom user model in my common.py I had this:
AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'accounts.User'
With the changes I was doing, I also add the prefix apps to this setting,
don't know why this setttings it works different, but instead of adding the prefix apps I had to leave it like it was before.
I think it maybe cause of the initial migration, that some how as is in the initial migration where the custom model is set up, probably the route is store somewhere and that maybe the thing causing the problem

Please help I can't understand why its not able read the settings even when migrate command is working perfectly fine

Taken from the docs:
Generally, when working on a single Django project, it’s easier to use manage.py than django-admin. If you need to switch between multiple Django settings files, use django-admin with DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE or the --settings command line option.
You didn't specify a --settings module (as an argument) in the django-admin, that's why Django complains. Do it like this: django-admin shell --settings=myproject.settings.
Also, from the docs:
The settings module should be in Python package syntax, e.g. mysite.settings. If this isn’t provided, django-admin will use the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable.
You can also do ./manage.py shell

Django error in django-social-auth

I am newbie in Django. I am implementing the facebook authentication in my app. The Error that i am getting in my terminal output is like ;
File "./manage.py", line 10, in <module>
execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 350, in execute_from_command_line

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/importlib/__init__.py", line 37, in import_module
__import__(name)
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/social_auth/models.py", line 4, in <module>
from django.utils.importlib import import_module
ImportError: No module named importlib
What i am doing wrong? IS my newly installed django-python-social installed correctly?

It seems like django-social-auth have already issues with django 1.8, so I don't wonder if it has problems with django 1.9. I will recommand to use django-allauth since it's the most used/rated package for social network, and it's easy to configure:
pip install django-allauth
settings.py config
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "templates")],
'APP_DIRS': True,
'OPTIONS': {
'context_processors': [
....
"django.core.context_processors.request",
# allauth specific context processors
"allauth.account.context_processors.account",
"allauth.socialaccount.context_processors.socialaccount",
],
},
},]
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
# Default backend
"django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend",
# `allauth` specific authentication methods, such as login by e-mail
"allauth.account.auth_backends.AuthenticationBackend",
)
INSTALLED_APPS += (
# The Django sites framework is required
'django.contrib.sites',
'allauth',
'allauth.account',
'allauth.socialaccount',
# Login Facebook provider
'allauth.socialaccount.providers.facebook',
)
SITE_ID = 1
in urls.py add:
urlpatterns = patterns('',
...
#Auth URLS
url(r'^accounts/', include('allauth.urls')),
)
Finally apply database migration
run server and go to the admin interface at
http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/sites/site and create a Site for
the localhost, 127.0.0.1:8000, or your website domain for
production. It should have an id equal to the SITE_ID configured
before in the setting.
Configure your facebook app to get secret key, and then create a Social Application for Facebook at http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/socialaccount/socialapp

django-social-auth has officially been deprecated in favour of python-social-auth. So you should not be using it. Moreover the import error is most probably due to incompatibility with Django 1.9 as importlib has been deprecated from django.
