Hi Everyone,
I'm having an issue testing a page protected with @login_required. I'm
loading a user via a fixture. I can call
self.client.login(**credentials) successfully and get True back. I can
retrieve a User object using the _auth_user_id key held in session
from the call to self.client.login. However, my "dashboard" view keeps
returning a 302.
I'm using the built-in AuthenticationForm, and not sure what could be
wrong at this point. I would really appreciate someone taking a look
at this code...
#views.py
@login_required
def dashboard(request):
return render_to_response('accounts/dashboard.html', {},
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
#tests.py
import httplib
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.contrib.auth import SESSION_KEY
from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse
from django.test import TestCase
class AccountsTestCase(TestCase):
def setUp(self):
self.dashboard_url = reverse('account_dashboard')
def tearDown(self):
self.client.logout()
def test_dashboard_redirects_unauthenticated_user(self):
dashboard_url = self.dashboard_url
#test that we can't get to the account dashboard if not logged
in
login_url = '%s?next=%s' % (reverse('login'), dashboard_url)
response = self.client.get(dashboard_url)
self.assertRedirects(response, login_url,
status_code=httplib.FOUND, target_status_code=httplib.OK)
def test_dashboard_allows_authenticated_user(self):
#test that we can login and then view the dashboard
logged_in = self.client.login(username='my_username',
password='my_password')
self.failUnless(logged_in, 'User could not be authenticated')
user =
User.objects.get(pk=self.client.session.get('_auth_user_id'))
response = self.client.get(self.dashboard_url)
self.assertEqual(response.status_code, httplib.OK)
TIA,
Brandon
