What is the proper incantation for faking a successful login (for a given user) as part of a unit test? My old code was:
$context = RequestContext::getMain(); $specialPage = new LoginForm( $context->getRequest() ); $user->logout(); $specialPage->showReturnToPage('successredirect'); $specialPage->successfulLogin();
What is the right way to perform this task with AuthManager?
Brad Jorsch (Anomie) asks:
What is the task exactly? Just outputting a "login successful" page without actually logging the user in? I guess the equivalent would be to call SpecialUserLogin::successfulAction() (using TestingAccessWrapper).
Thanks Brad. I have an extension that takes a special action when a user logs in for the first time. (It automatically creates the user page, User:Username.) I have a unit test that creates a user, logs that user in (as above), and then checks that the user page was created. With the LoginForm class deprecated, I am looking for the right way to implement this test in MW 1.27. Any insights are appreciated.
Thank you, DanB
