Django : RunTimeWarning : DateTimeField received a naive datetime while time zone support is active
<p>I am trying to test a cart creation based on <a href="https://github.com/bmentges/django-cart/blob/master/cart/tests.py" rel="noreferrer">django cart</a></p>

<p>But I have this error when I am trying to create the cart :</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>RunTimeWarning : DateTimeField received a naive datetime while time zone support is active</p>
</blockquote>

<p>I did some research but I couldn't resolve my problem for <code>datetime.datetime.now()</code></p>

<p>test_views.py in my tests directory :</p>

<pre><code>from django.test import TestCase, Client, RequestFactory
import unittest
from django.contrib.auth.models import User, AnonymousUser
from front.models import Entreprise, Cart, CartItems
from decimal import Decimal
from front.cart import models
import datetime
import pytz
from pytz import all_timezones
from django.utils import timezone



def _create_cart_in_database(self, creationDate=datetime.datetime.now(), checkedOutDate=True):
    """
        Helper function so I don't repeat myself
    """
    cart = models.Cart()
    cart.creationDate = creationDate
    cart.checkedOutDate = False
    cart.save()
    return cart


def test_cart_creation(self):
    creationDate = datetime.datetime.now()
    cart = self._create_cart_in_database(creationDate)
    id = cart.id

    cart_from_database = models.Cart.objects.get(pk=id)
    self.assertEquals(cart, cart_from_database)
</code></pre>

<p>models.py :</p>

<pre><code>class Cart(models.Model):
    creationDate = models.DateTimeField()
</code></pre>

<p>I also have <code>USE_TZ = True</code> in my settings.</p>

<p>I tried <code>timezone.now()</code> but still doesn't work :</p>

<pre><code>def _create_cart_in_database(self, creationDate=timezone.now(), checkedOutDate=True):

def test_cart_creation(self):
    creationDate = timezone.now()
</code></pre>

<blockquote>
  <p>RunTimeWarning : DateTimeField Cart.creationDate received a naive datetime (2016-06-03 08:46:34.829000) while time zone support is active.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>EDIT :</p>

<p>I have this error now and it seems an error format datetime ?</p>
