I think the CI builds are failing because the ./manage.py makemigrations isn't being run in the workflow, the migration I added solved the issue of the NOT NULL constraint on verb when I tested locally.

Thanks @pranshustuff.

We need a test which replicates the bug described in #334. The test should fail without your patch and should pass with it.

Please also make sure the CI build passes.

See more comments below.

Added a test to verify correct behaviour and specified
exceptions in the try-except in the verb property in
models.py

Fixes openwisp#334

Ok locally, it passed the tests, on sample app too. I added a test that mimics the bug in test_notifications.py.
