In functional tests get, put etc take a third parameter which allows session
data to be setup. Thus one can say:
def test_show
get :show, {:id => @first_id}, { :user_id =>
users(:user_name_from_fixture).id }
...
This sets the user_id in the session and allows restful_authentication to
login and setup current_user
