Testing Django Inline ModelForms: How to arrange POST data?

I have a Django 'add business' view which adds a new business with an inline 'business_contact' form.

The form works fine, but I'm wondering how to write up the unit test - specifically, the 'postdata' to send to self.client.post(settings.BUSINESS_ADD_URL, postdata)

I've inspected the fields in my browser and tried adding post data with corresponding names, but I still get a 'ManagementForm data is missing or has been tampered with' error when run.

Anyone know of any reso开发者_C百科urces for figuring out how to post inline data?

Relevant models, views & forms below if it helps. Lotsa thanks.

MODEL:

class Contact(models.Model):
    """ Contact details for the representatives of each business """

VIEWS:

def business_add(request):

        if form.is_valid():

                #return HttpResponse(help(contact))
                #business.primary = contact.id

            },
            context_instance=RequestContext(request)
            )

FORMS:

class AddBusinessForm(ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Business
        exclude = ['deleted','primary_contact',]

class ContactForm(ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Contact
        exclude = ['deleted',]


AddBusinessFormSet = inlineformset_factory(Business,
        Contact,
        can_delete=False,
        extra=1,
        form=AddBusinessForm,
        )

The problem is you have not included the management form in your data. You need to include form-TOTAL_FORMS (total number of forms in the formset, default is 2), form-INITIAL_FORMS (the initial number of forms in the formset, default is 0) and form-MAX_NUM_FORMS (the maximum number of forms in the formset, default is '').

See the Formset documentation for more information on the management form.
