 The following snippet from
 
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/testing/tools/#django.test.Client.session
 the documentation] does not work when using
 `django.contrib.sessions.backends.signed_cookies`:

 {{{
 #!python
 def test_something(self):
     session = self.client.session
     session['somekey'] = 'test'
     session.save()
 }}}

 `session.save()` is not enough in this case: session key is session data
 itself and test client cookies need to be updated.
 Like `session` getter does when creating session store object
 (`django/test/client.py:732`):

 {{{
 #!python
 self.cookies[settings.SESSION_COOKIE_NAME] = session.session_key
 }}}
