---------------------------------------
Please remove the extra lines in TestAuthenticationSessionCookie.java
Otherwise, the patch looks good.

> During http authentication, a cookie is dropped. This is a persistent cookie.
> The cookie is valid across browser sessions.
> For clusters which require enhanced security, it is desirable to have a
> session cookie so that cookie gets deleted when the user closes browser
> session.
> It should be possible to specify cookie persistence (session or persistent)
> via configuration
