The mock external context calls getRemoteUser() on the mock servlet
request
object, so that is where we really need to set it. If your unit test
case
is a subclass of AbstractJsfTestCase or AbstractViewControllerTestCase,
the
superclass will have set you up an instance variable called "request"
for
this, so all you need to do is:
request.setUserPrincipal(new MyPrincipal("username"));
where MyPrincipal is a class that implements the
java.security.Principalinterface. (Obviously that's not very friendly
... I'll add a MockPrincipal
class that should be available in tonight's nightly build.)
Setting this propery will cause both request.getUserPrincipal() and
request.getRemoteUser() to return non-null values, which can then be
accessed via ExternalContext.getUserPrincipal() and
ExternalContext.getRemoteUser() respectively.
