Ya, when I'm writing unit tests for my forms. What I wanted was a way in my
testing logic to generate a dictionary of values to post back to the server
based on the initial values of the forms in the content property of the
response object returned from the test client get() and/or post() methods.
Do you mean when you write tests?

change a few values and throw it back at the server. This is especially
helpful with large dynamic forms that use formsets.
