resolve function

The resolve function is used to get the view that a URL pattern invokes.

from django.urls import resolve

from .views import home_page


view = resolve('/')
assertEqual(view.func, home_page)

The resolve function returns a ResolverMatch object, which allows you to access data about the resolved URL. One of these data is .func, which contains the view function that would be used to serve the URL. It also has .args and .kwargs, which contain the arguments that would be passed to the view function, as parsed from the URL.
