Hi Valery, You probably don't need to reproduce everything that is labeled @skipIfCustomUser - those tests are the "core" tests to make sure the basic auth mechanisms work as expected. The remaining tests are the ones that exist to make sure that a couple of key patterns in custom Users work as expected. If you're writing a test suite for your own user model, you don't need to re-validated that the core logic works as expected - you just need to validate that your extensions play well with the core.
