django.test.client.AsyncRequestFactory

class documentation

class AsyncRequestFactory(RequestFactory):

Known subclasses: django.test.client.AsyncClient

Class that lets you create mock ASGI-like Request objects for use in testing. Usage:

rf = AsyncRequestFactory() get_request = await rf.get('/hello/') post_request = await rf.post('/submit/', {'foo': 'bar'})

Once you have a request object you can pass it to any view function, including synchronous ones. The reason we have a separate class here is: a) this makes ASGIRequest subclasses, and b) AsyncTestClient can subclass it.
