If I understand well, you mean that my form templates have to extend the main wizard template. Is that correct?

In previous versions this was achieved by writing template_name = 'main_wizard_template.html' into the subclass of WizardView. Am I wrong?

So, with {% extends 'registration/test_wizard.html' %} in registration/test_step1.html and registration/test_step2.html it should work.

I will try tonight.

Thanks.

 

Yes, the templates referenced in each step should extend your main template, if you are doing something fancy in the template used for each step. 

Given the template in your OP, you probably don't even need to specify a template per step, since you aren't doing anything different other than having Django/formtools print the form using the default styling. A simple class attribute like template_name = 'registration/test_wizard.html' would probably suffice, since it should act as the fallback template if you don't specify a template per step, and get rid of get_template_names() entirely (since you're using the same template for every step). Your entire Wizard class can probably look like this:

class WizardTest(SessionWizardView):
    template_name = 'registration/test_wizard.html'

    # Method called when all is done
    def done(self, form_list, **kwargs):
        return HttpResponseRedirect('/url-to-redirect-to/') 

Obviously you'll need to have the other scaffolding in place for this to work (list of forms passed to the view in the urls.py file, etc.), and I don't believe any of the forms will be saved in this state (you'll need to do that as part of your done() method), but everything should display and should give you a base to work from.
