我正在使用需要查询PostgreSQL数据库的Django Web应用程序。使用Python实现并发时 穿线 界面，我得到了 DoesNotExist 查询项目的错误。当然，顺序执行查询时不会发生这些错误。
让我展示一个单元测试，我写这个测试来演示意外的行为：
class ThreadingTest(TestCase):
fixtures = ['demo_city',]
def test_sequential_requests(self):
"""
A very simple request to database, made sequentially.
A fixture for the cities has been loaded above. It is supposed to be
six cities in the testing database now. We will made a request for
each one of the cities sequentially.
"""
for number in range(1, 7):
c = City.objects.get(pk=number)
self.assertEqual(c.pk, number)
def test_threaded_requests(self):
"""
Now, to test the threaded behavior, we will spawn a thread for
retrieving each city from the database.
"""
threads = []
cities = []
def do_requests(number):
cities.append(City.objects.get(pk=number))
[threads.append(threading.Thread(target=do_requests, args=(n,))) for n in range(1, 7)]
[t.start() for t in threads]
[t.join() for t in threads]
self.assertNotEqual(cities, [])
如您所见，第一个测试按顺序执行一些数据库请求，这确实没有问题。但是，第二个测试执行完全相同的请求，但每个请求都是在一个线程中生成的。这实际上是失败的，返回一个 DoesNotExist 例外。
执行此单元测试的输出如下：
test_sequential_requests (cesta.core.tests.threadbase.ThreadingTest) ... ok
test_threaded_requests (cesta.core.tests.threadbase.ThreadingTest) ...
Exception in thread Thread-1:

请记住，所有这些都发生在PostgreSQL数据库中，该数据库应该是线程安全的，而不是SQLite或类似物。测试也使用PostgreSQL运行。
在这一点上，我完全迷失了可能失败的东西。有什么想法或建议吗？
谢谢！
编辑： 我写了一个小视图，只是为了检查它是否在测试中运行。以下是视图的代码：
def get_cities(request):
queue = Queue.Queue()
def get_async_cities(q, n):
city = City.objects.get(pk=n)
q.put(city)
threads = [threading.Thread(target=get_async_cities, args=(queue, number)) for number in range(1, 5)]
[t.start() for t in threads]
[t.join() for t in threads]
cities = list()
while not queue.empty():
cities.append(queue.get())
return render_to_response('async/cities.html', {'cities': cities},
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
（请不要考虑在视图代码中编写应用程序逻辑的愚蠢行为。请记住，这只是一个概念证明，并不会永远不会在真正的应用程序中。）
结果是代码运行良好，请求在线程中成功完成，视图最终在调用其URL后显示城市。
因此，我认为使用线程进行查询只会在您需要测试代码时出现问题。在生产中，它将毫无问题地工作。
有没有成功测试这种代码的有用建议？
