How do you set a default value for a WTForms SelectField?

Question

When attempting to set the default value of a SelectField with WTForms, I pass in value to the \'default\' parameter like so.

class TestForm(Form):
  test_fi

The first way you posted is correct, and it works for me. The only explanation for it not working can be that you are running an older version of WTForms, it worked for me on 1.0.1
