About RequestFactory in Django Tests
In Django tests, when using RequestFactory
to create fake requests, you can include extra META
parameters by passing them as keyword arguments to methods like get()
and post()
.
For example to pass a custom user agent you would do this:
factory = RequestFactory()
request = factory.get(
"/",
{"page": "1"},
HTTP_USER_AGENT="Facebot",
)
