FormAuthentication with machine name
I already asked this question five months ago and did not get any answer
...
There was/is a Bug (17933) with FormAuthentication using not localhost as
the machine name
in the cactus.properties file (cactus.contextURL).
The fix was announced earlier for version 1.6.
Is this already fixed in one of the nightly builds?
I already tried two or three of the earlier ones but without success.
Thanks for any help!

hmm... There is a global begin(WebRequest) method. But it is called
before every test (it's the equivalent of setUp() but on the client
side). What we should do really is create the equivalent of JUnit
TestSetup but with methods names begin/end instead of SetUp/tearDown.
Patches much welcome :-)

Thinking more about it, I'm not so sure that the solution is a method
that is called only once... Each test must set its own fixture. So you
should group test using the same fixture (i.e. user being logging in) in
the same TestCase class. Then simply use either begin() or even better
setUp() (it has direct access to the session) to log the user in before
*each* test.
Cactus is about unitary tests so each test must set its own fixture and
not depend on other tests or side effects.
Thanks

Hi Anton,
Sorry for the late answer. The status is in the bug itself:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17933
It's still open and thus has not been fixed. Would you have patch for
it?
Thanks
