I have created users for my unit tests in two ways:

1) Create a fixture for "auth.user" that looks roughly like this:

    {
        "pk": 1,
        "model": "auth.user",
        "fields": {
            "username": "homer",
            "is_active": 1,
            "password":
"sha1$72cd3$4935449e2cd7efb8b3723fb9958fe3bb100a30f2",
            ...
        }
    }

I've left out the seemingly unimportant parts.

2) Use 'create_user' in the setUp function (although I'd rather keep
everything in my fixtures class):

      def
setUp(self):
              User.objects.create_user('homer', 'ho...@simpson.net',
'simpson')

Note that the password is simpson in both cases.

I've verified that this info is correctly being loaded into the test
database time and time again. I can grab the User object using
User.objects.get. I can verify the password is correct using
'check_password.' The user is active.

Yet, invariably, self.client.login(username='homer',
password='simpson') FAILS. I'm baffled as to why. I think I've read
every single Internet discussion pertaining to this. Can anybody help?
My login code looks like this:

                login = self.client.login(username='homer',
password='simpson')
                self.assertTrue(login)

Thanks,

Adam
