How to test a Django view which has transaction.atomic(using=myDb)?

I am trying to test a django view that includes a transaction; in particular, I specify which db I want to use by transaction.atomic(using=myDb). However, when I run my test I get django.db.utils.ConnectionDoesNotExist: The connection myDb doesn't exist.

Is there any way to test the view given that I'm not hitting myDb in the test? Thanks for your help!
