add development fixtures

Task

• [x] add factory_boy to this project with poetry add factory_boy --group dev
• [x] define the initial factory_boy factories

[brylie]

@werberger, would you consider taking this task? Companionship Care is also a Django app, so it would be similar to the CiviWiki codebase. There are a few open tasks in Companionship Care, whereas most tasks in CiviWiki have been claimed.

I am definitely interested - the project looks amazing too. Thank you @brylie.

I will look at it in more detail over the coming days.

@brylie I've seen the factories defined in different places, where would you prefer them defined?

• in factories files within test folders within each app
• in factories files within each app
• in a tests file at the project level

I think I'm confident resolving the issue just don't want to create more work for someone to move everything.

[brylie]

Let's start out with a factories.py in each app directory.

I've defined all factories for existing classes @brylie except for Activity which I'm struggling with due to it's ManyToMany relationship with User. I'm happy to keep working on it, but realise I've been assigned for some time. Understand if you'd prefer to move it on yourself. But happy to keep trying to work it out. Also open to any thoughts anyone might have. For the record, I have read this

Go ahead and split out the Activity factory into a follow-up task. Also, open a PR with the current factories.
