Re: Extend ControllerTestCase

Excuse me for bringing up this old topic, but I have one more question.

My TestController wrapper object contains a method which tests the
authentication layer (it's a custom layer, not the one shipped within cakephp);
consequently all the controllers' tests can easily issue
$this->testAuthKeys(...) and check whether the authentication layer has been
correctly implemented by tested controllers.

The problem is that if I assign to the aforementioned function the name
``testAuthLayer'' (or ``test*'' in general), the testsuite will try and test
the method itself. Is there a way to avoid this? (other than workarounds like
$this->_testAuthKeys..)

Regards,
Matteo
