Comment (by codingjoe):
As I said:
It does not work if your objects are not yet created and you can't pass a
queryset.
{{{
from django.forms.models import modelformset_factory
def test_view(request):
qs = Poll.objects.none()
PollFormSet = modelformset_factory(Poll, fields='__all__')
if request.method == 'POST':
formset = PollFormSet(request.POST, inital=[{'vote': 2},
{'vote':4}])
if formset.is_valid():
obj_list = formset.save()
assert len(obj_list) == 2
else:
formset = PollFormSet(queryset=qs, initial=[
{'question': 'initial', 'pub_date': timezone.now()}])
return render(request, 'polls/manage.html', {'formset': formset})
}}}
This will fail.
