Re: TestCase Client.login() fails

Hello, Jonathan!

I think issue is in the fragment 'password=user.password' in the line:

>         response = self.client.login(username=user.username,
> password=user.password)

'user.password' - is not plain text password, it's encrypted and it's
not equal 't3stp@s$' !
