Just use "initial" keyword on creation form
class myForm(forms.Form):
test = forms.CharField(label = _('test'), max_length=255, required =
True)
....
myForm(initial = {'test': 'test string'}).
If you use form that generated from model:
class myForm(forms.Form):
class Meta:
model = myModel
...
myForm(initial = myModel(var1 = 'qq' )).
