python - ValidationError in Django Model -

i defined test model as:

class test(models.model):      name = models.binaryfield(blank=false)     time = models.timefield()      # 1 test case has many tests     testcase = models.foreignkey(testcase)      def __str__(self):         return self.name 

when try parse xml file create model object have following method:

def add_test(testcase, obj):     kwargs = {         'name': "",         'time': none,     }     status = 1     # create test object     k, v in obj.iteritems():         if k == '@name':             kwargs['name'] = v if v not none else ""         elif k == '@time':             kwargs['time'] = v     print kwargs     test = test(testcase=testcase, **kwargs)     test.save() 

there, testcase oject of testcase model. kwargs have correct input:

{'name': u'runtest', 'time': u'36.332'} 

however, when invoke above function get:

i don't quite what's going on there ... clues?

to make work have convert string datetime.time.

kwargs['time'] = datetime.datetime.strptime(v, 'your_time_format').time() 

replace your_time_format input time format have.
