[rspec-users] Mocking Authentication

[Michael Trier]

Thanks so much.  Funny that you responded because I saw your post  
about testing controllers and your mention of  
mock_user_authentication, but no implementation for it when I did a  
search.  I tried to contact you but couldn't find a contact address.   
Anyway, thanks so much.  I'll give that a shot.
