How can I post data to django import_export

Question

I would like to test the import function from import_export django. When I run my test the code says I provide no dataset (None) even though I do provide a proper CSV file. Thus, my assertions (starting from self.assertIn('result', response.context)) fail.

Why don't my resource class and def import_data see the dataset I provide in response = self.client.post(import_url, data=data)?

My test:

class ImportUserCase(TestCase):
    
    def setUp(self) -> None:
        self.admin = User.objects.create(login='admin', email='[email protected]', password='password', is_staff=True, is_superuser=True)
        self.client = Client()
        self.client.force_login(self.admin)
        self.resource = UserImportResource()
    
    def test_import_action(self) -> None:
        import_url = '/admin/core/user/import/'
        process_url = '/admin/core/user/process_import/'
        
        input_format = '0'
        filename = 'users.csv'
        with open('users.csv', 'w') as f:
            writer = csv.writer(f)
            writer.writerow(UserImportResource.Meta.fields)
            writer.writerow('test', '[email protected]', 'test, 'test', 'test)
        with open(filename, "rb") as f:
            data = {
                'input_format': input_format,
                'import_file': f,
            }
            response = self.client.post(import_url, data=data)
            self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200)

            self.assertIn('result', response.context) 
            self.assertFalse(response.context['result'].has_errors())
            self.assertIn('confirm_form', response.context)
            confirm_form = response.context['confirm_form']

            data = confirm_form.initial
            self.assertEqual(data['original_file_name'], 'books.csv')
            response = self.client.post(process_url, data,follow=True)
            self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200)

My resource:

        result = self.get_result_class()()
        fns = self.get_import_field_names()

            if header not in fns or header == 'id':
                err_msg = 'Error'
                result.append_base_error(self.get_error_result_class()(err_msg))
                return result

        user_logins_search = {str(row['login']).strip() for row in dataset.dict}

        using_transactions = False if dry_run else True
        with atomic_if_using_transaction(using_transactions):

    def get_user_visible_fields(self):
        return self.get_import_fields()
