Re: Testing a logged in user

Yes, you can simple use the Session to store and "fake" a logged in user.

Just make sure you dont forget --stderr to append to your test command. Otherwise the session based tests will fail.

I've read and searched and am stumped. I have set up test cases and fixtures for my (built) models and controllers. I want to run a controller test that logs in a specific user (who exists in my users fixture) and then run a controller action. I want to test that the displayed values meet expectations. Lots of answers point to using generate to mock objects, but - unless I'm being really dumb here - I don't need to mock anything. The users controller exists and it includes both the Auth and Session components (from AppController). Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?
