There are also a lot of things the Django test client can't do. Anything relying upon client-side javascript, for example. Like the docs say, it's not intended as the perfect ultimate test client - just as a way of doing simple view testing. > And, sorry for disturbing, I thought that client really fills form & > co.

Until recently, login() did fill in a form - but it was a very specific form (the form from django.contrib.auth.views). In [5152] (post 0.96 release), this was replaced with a scheme that avoids forms entirely. The test client now uses the authentication credentials directly to set up a session, set a session cookie, etc. This simulates the effect of logging in without actually visiting a specific login view. Without knowing the specifics of your setup, if you have OpenID set up as an django.contrib.auth backend, you should be able to provide the OpenID credentials to the test client login method, which will log in the test client session.
