Hello everyone,

My database has two types of entries: The very dynamic (users, comments, etc) and the more static (email templates, flat-pages).

During testing I want a clean DB but with the real 'semi-static' data.

Is there a way to make Django's testing system to load parts of the original DB ?

Thanks
