The only long term and robust solution that I can think of right now is to
create a user via API as a setup step for every scenario that needs logging
in.

That would create a lot of users over time. I guess we do not care about
that for purely testing sites (like beta.wmflabs.org) but it might be a
problem for test2.wikipedia.org. We can make it easy to delete such users
on a daily/weekly/monthly/yearly bases. (For example, usernames could look
like Selenium_user_12345.)

The alternative is to create 10-100-1000(...) users and then use one user
for each scenario.

Or have the per

It would be useful if we could enable this for testing sites, so we could
reuse one user, like we do now.
