Yeah but then this would be specific to each testcase. Can I have a
authentication done only once for all the testcases (beginXXX methods for
different test cases) for a single component being tested?

I want to know if i can avoid writing/ checking authentication in each
beginXXX() method. Is there any function such that cactus executes it just
once and not when every testcase is encountered.

Regards,
Tejaswini
