As described in ​this mailing list thread adding a raw_post method to the test Client class would allow simple posting of raw data, such as XML or JSON, to views. This would make testing AJAX views and views that communicate with other agents than browsers easier.

(In [4529]) Fixed #3160 -- Added the ability to control the content type in a test client POST request. This is to allow easier testing of json-rpc/xml-rpc/soap etc interfaces. Thanks to Mikeal Rogers for the suggestion, and Ben <afternoon@…> for the patch.
