Why doesn't Django Rest Framework APIRequestFactory support query_params for DELETE method?

Question

In one of my view, I'm passing additional data as query params in APIView delete method. I'm able to fetch the same using the request.query_params in the view. But when I'm trying to test the same with DRF APIRequestFactory, the data is empty. Digging further through the APIRequestFactory code shows me that its only looking at request.data and not on QUERY_STRING. Is there any specific reason for this behaviour?

Did you ever get this resolved? – NotSimon Jul 22 '19 at 15:12 — NotSimon, Jul 22 '19 at 15:12
