Vladimir Sidorenko

In order to check if user is authentcated in test, you can run:

from django.contrib.auth import get_user

  class MyTestCase(TestCase):
      def test_login(self):
          self.assertFalse(get_user(self.client).is_authenticated())
          self.client.login(username='fred', password='secret')
          self.assertTrue(get_user(self.client).is_authenticated())

Twitter API, OAuth and decorators

In my current project I had a task to use twitter API. Twitter uses OAuth for authentication, which is pretty dreary. To avoid fiddling with it all the time, I've moved authentication to decorator. If key is available - nothing happens, just view is launched as usual. It's convenient that there's no need for additional twitter settings in user profile. Code is in article.
