memory backend not working: 'Backend' object has no attribute 'callback'

[jonozzz]

I'm still trying to find a way to get rid of the ghettoq DB backend and I tried the memory which sounds very close to what I'm looking for. But...

[ask]

memory backend is used for the celery test suite, but it's very incomplete. I'm currently working on a new version of it.

Cool, can't wait! So is the "memory" backend going to be an official backend ?

Hi Ask, is there an update on this issue? I'm currently running into issues trying to use the memory backend in my unittests (same result as above backtrace).

I see that Celery uses the memory backend successfully in its unittests, but for the life of me, even if I copy the Celery setup code as-is into my unittests, I can't get it to work.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Cheers,
jay
