@ -340,6 +340,13 @@ Use the ``django.test.Client`` class to make requests.
``login()`` method to simulate the effect of a user logging into the
site.
Inactive users (:attr:`is_active=False
<django.contrib.auth.models.User.is_active>`) are not permitted to
login as this method is meant to be equivalent to the
:func:`~django.contrib.auth.login` view which uses
:class:`~django.contrib.auth.forms.AuthenticationForm` and therefore
defaults to rejecting users who are inactive.
After you call this method, the test client will have all the cookies
and session data required to pass any login-based tests that may form
part of a view.
