protected function DrupalWebTestCase::drupalLogin in SimpleTest 7

Same name and namespace in other branches

1. 6.2 drupal_web_test_case.php \DrupalWebTestCase::drupalLogin()
2. 7.2 drupal_web_test_case.php \DrupalWebTestCase::drupalLogin()

Log in a user with the internal browser.

If a user is already logged in, then the current user is logged out before logging in the specified user.

Please note that neither the global $user nor the passed in user object is populated with data of the logged in user. If you need full access to the user object after logging in, it must be updated manually. If you also need access to the plain-text password of the user (set by drupalCreateUser()), e.g. to login the same user again, then it must be re-assigned manually. For example:

// Create a user.
$account = $this
  ->drupalCreateUser(array());
$this
  ->drupalLogin($account);

// Load real user object.
$pass_raw = $account->pass_raw;
$account = user_load($account->uid);
$account->pass_raw = $pass_raw;

Parameters

$user: User object representing the user to login.
