Run a testcase with custom INSTALLED_APPS

This code allows you to register a model to Django that is only used for unit testing. It will not exist in the regular Django workflow. After the tests executed, the Django settings are restored. Usage: 1. Change `tests.py` into a `tests` package. 2. Place a `models.py` in the `tests` package. 3. Use the following code below to enable it. Example: class MyTest(CustomSettingsTestCase): new_settings = dict( INSTALLED_APPS=( 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.auth', 'app_to_test', 'app_to_test.tests', ) ) Based on http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1011/ as Django 1.4 version
