This problems gave me great headache when i tried to use reverse for generating activation link and send it via email of course  So i think from tests py it will be same   The correct way to do this is following   from django test import Client from django core urlresolvers import reverse   app name - name of the app where the url is defined client  Client   response   client get reverse  app name edit project   project id 4

Resolve is also more straightforward  from django urls import resolve  resolve  edit project   project id 4    Documentation on this shortcut

The solution  miki725 is absolutely correct  Alternatively  if you would like to use the args attribute as opposed to kwargs  then you can simply modify your code as follows   project id   4 reverse  edit project   args  project id      An example of this can be found in the documentation  This essentially does the same thing  but the attributes are passed as arguments  Remember that any arguments that are passed need to be assigned a value before being reversed  Just use the correct namespace  which in this case is  edit project
