 Even though `Select` and `RadioSelect` both share most of the
 functionality by inheriting from `ChoiceWidget`, there are no explicit
 tests for `ChoiceWidget`, and tests for `Select` and `RadioSelect` have
 diverged considerably over time.

 While some tests will be specific to each children (for their custom
 code), after inspection when reviewing
 [https://github.com/django/django/pull/16929/ PR] for #34034, there seems
 to be some tests that were added to `Select` but not added to their
 counterpart `RadioSelect`, for example `test_deepcopy`.

 My hope with this ticket is to either:

 * evaluate the creation of specific tests for `ChoiceWidget` and have
 tests for  `Select` and `RadioSelect` reusing those, and then having
 custom tests for their custom functionality

 * extend the tests for `RadioSelect` using those for `Select` as a guide
 and have some sort of comment suggesting to grow both test suites when
 making changes to their parent class.
