here's the shell session with just the commands; copy/paste this into a terminal, it should give the expected failures on the first run and succeed on the second run, as long as you save the two attached settings files into /tmp

cd tmp/
virtualenv test_django_static
cd test_django_static/
source bin/activate
pip install django django-static slimmer
django-admin.py startproject foo
cd foo/
chmod +x manage.py

rm -f settings.py && cp -f /tmp/settings.py.BAD settings.py
./manage.py test django_static

rm -f settings.py && cp /tmp/settings.py.OK settings.py
./manage.py test django_static
