 I was trying to convert middleware tests to use `RequestFactory`. I've
 converted all tests easily except
 `CommonMiddlewareTest.test_append_slash_quoted`:

 {{{#!python
     @override_settings(APPEND_SLASH=True)
     def test_append_slash_quoted(self):
         """
         Tests that URLs which require quoting are redirected to their
 slash
         version ok.
         """
         request = self._get_request('needsquoting#')
         r = CommonMiddleware().process_request(request)
         self.assertEqual(r.status_code, 301)
         self.assertEqual(
             r.url,
             'http://testserver/needsquoting%23/')
 }}}

 The `urlparse` call in the `RequestFactory.generic` method swallows `#` in
 the URL. The test is passing with a plain `HttpRequest` object.

 Here is a try to fix this problem:

 An alternative fix would be to wrap `path` with `quote(path, safe=b"...")`
 or with `django.utils.encoding.escape_uri_path` in
 `RequestFactory.generic`:
