Hi Devs,

I was implementing unit-tests in my Django project and stumbled upon the
following issue.

I want to unit-test my POST route. I do not want to use the test client
already shipped with Django (using it in my e2e tests). I want to know how
do I prepare my request object to pass to my view. Here is what I have done
currently.

test_views.py

> class CreateBlogTest(BaseViewTest):

    @classmethod
>     def setUpClass(cls):
>         cls.request.method = "POST"

    def test_create_valid_blog(self):
>         self.request.content_type = "application/json"
>         self.request._body = json.dumps({"title": "new title", "body":
> "new body"})
>
>         response = views.blog_collection(self.request)
>         self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 201)
>

In my view, I am accessing the data through *request.data* and passing it
to a serializer.

In my current setting, I am getting a 400 error message when I have checked
that the user does not exist.

Any suggestions regarding the same?

Thanks,
