Problem with sending POST request in Test.py using token authentication in DRF

[minifisk]

I'm facing problems doing POST requests when using Token authentication with DRF.

Setting up a user

class TodoTests(TestCase):
    @classmethod

    # Set up test DB
    def setUpTestData(cls):
        cls.user2 = User.objects.create(
            username="tomjones", email="[email protected]", password="password123"
        )

I would like to get the auth-token from my authorization endpoint:

    def test_post_new_task_authorized_user(self):
        userdata = {"username": self.user2.username, "password": self.user2.password}
        response = self.client.post(
            "/api-token-auth",
            userdata,
            content_type="application/json",
        )
        print(self.user1.username)
        print(self.user1.password)
        print(response.json())

The username and password equals what I've set for the user when creating it, and response.json equals:
{'non_field_errors': ['Unable to log in with provided credentials.']}

Also, when I've managed to get the token, how would I go about to send a post request to some of my other endpoints where I need to be authenticated?
