auth_token for unittest in Django

Question

I've been trying to test my login system using the following code

from django.test import TestCase, Client from rest_framework.test import force_authenticate class DeckTestCase(TestCase): @classmethod def setUp(cls): test_user1 = User.objects.create(first_name='tester',username='test1', password='123', email='[email protected]') def test_if_logged(self): factory = Client() user = User.objects.get(username='teste1') request = factory.post('/login', {'username': 'test1', 'password': '123'}, format='json') force_authenticate(request,user=user) print(request)

But i keep getting this response, which is 401 (Unauthorized)

<Response status_code=401, "application/json">

Can someone help me? I don't know how do I send an auth_token with test_if_logged

You should use .create_user(…) [Django-doc] to create a user, this will set a hashed password for that user:

@classmethod def setUp(cls): test_user1 = User.objects.create_user( first_name='tester', username='test1', password='123', email='[email protected]' )
