Model Bakery: Smart fixtures for better tests

Model Bakery offers you a smart way to create fixtures for testing in Django.

With a simple and powerful API you can create many objects with a single line of code.

Model Bakery is a rename of the legacy model_mommy's project. This is because the project's creator and maintainers decided to not reinforce gender stereotypes for women in technology. You can read more about this subject here.

Compatibility

Model Bakery supports Django >= 3.2.
