Mocking the controller validation on testcases

I have a controller function that i'm trying to test but can't because of the
authorization component.

If have read both
http:cakephp.1045679.n5.nabble.com/testing-a-controller-s-add-action-td1311830.html
and
http:www.mark-story.com/posts/view/testing-cakephp-controllers-the-hard-way
but when i run the test it still redirects me to the login page which makes
me believe that I don't have the correct understanding of mocking the Auth
component.

Here is my code, my problem is on the function called test_exampleOfOne
(which is a fake test, I just want to get the concept working before
applying it to a functional controller. test_exampleOfOne simply returns the
number 44)

<?php

App::import('Component', 'Auth');

App::import('Controller', 'Users');

class TestUsersController extends UsersController {

var $name = 'Users';

var $autoRender = false;

function redirect($url, $status = null, $exit = true) {

$this->redirectUrl = $url;

}

function render($action = null, $layout = null, $file = null) {

$this->renderedAction = $action;

}

function _stop($status = 0) {

$this->stopped = $status;

}

}

class UsersControllerTest extends CakeTestCase {

function startCase() {

echo '
Starting Test Case';

}

function endCase() {

echo '
Ending Test Case';

}

function startTest($method) {

echo '
Starting method ' . $method . '';

$this->UsersController = new TestUsersController();

//$this->UsersController->initialize($this->UsersController);

Mock::generate('AuthComponent');

$this->UsersController->Auth = new MockAuthComponent();

}

function endTest($method) {

echo '
';

}

function test_exampleOfOne() {

$this->UsersController->Auth->setReturnValue('user',1);

$this->Users->Session->write('Auth.User', array(

'id' => 1,

'username' => 'markstory',

));

$result = $this->testAction('/users/exampleOfOne');

$this->assertEqual($result, 44);

?>
