Guided Lab: Models, Migrations, and the ORM in Django Web Development
Django Web Development — Models, Migrations, and the ORM lab: Design two related tables or models, add constraints, and create a migration that can be applied to a test database.
Know what success looks like before you begin
Save verification evidence: the relevant output, test, log, query result, or rendered state for Models, Migrations, and the ORM.
- I completed the module-specific practice task.
- I produced a working models, migrations, and the orm example with an explicit success and failure check.
- I saved the relevant output, test, log, query result, or rendered state for Models, Migrations, and the ORM.
- I diagnosed and corrected one realistic Models, Migrations, and the ORM failure.
Stop before using production credentials, important data, shared permissions, live infrastructure, or destructive commands that are not required by the lab.

Know the problem and the evidence you need
Design two related tables or models, add constraints, and create a migration that can be applied to a test database.
a working models, migrations, and the orm example with an explicit success and failure check
Complete the task, verify the relevant output, test, log, query result, or rendered state for Models, Migrations, and the ORM, then diagnose one failure that is specific to Models, Migrations, and the ORM.
Model entities, keys, relationships, constraints, and change history so invalid states are difficult to store.
Prepare before changing anything
Have this ready
- Open a small local project or disposable lab environment.
- Confirm the runtime, toolchain, or service needed for the module.
- Prepare one valid input and one invalid or boundary input.
Run the lab
Complete one check at a time. Record the evidence before moving on.
Match the evidence to the next action
The expected result appears and the boundary case behaves correctly
Save the result and continue to the module checkpoint.
The normal case works but the failure or boundary case does not
Return to the diagnostic step and inspect the module-specific state or output before changing more code.
The result changes between runs
Compare the relevant input, dependency, configuration, data, state, or runtime version for this module.
Choose the next action
Complete the lab when you can reproduce the working result, explain the important module decision, and recover from the tested failure.
Confirm the evidence you produced
