I'm with Dave on this one. It's curious, because as we speak I am
thinking how to test authorisation. My authorisation is based on 2
things:
1 - @Roles("role1,role2") annotation on the method/class
This is easily tested with, eg, java reflection that compares the roles
with an expected list of roles (you can ever automate it so that you
fetch the list of all authorisations from a file and test all mehtods in
the same test class
2 - <customtag:roles allowed="somerole"> content </customtag:roles>,
which gets displayed or not depending on what roles the user has.
Like Dave points out, this falls into the category of "Are the right
things displayed".
