How to get authenticated while testing

[bhubavenski]

I am trying to test my app, while I am authenticated. For authentication I am using next-auth V4. What many people are doing is to manually attach specific cookies and etc. so they can get authenticated. I don't know what I have to do. I am using next auth and I don't know what it is looking for so I can provide it. So, how I can test my app, as authenticated person, without going to /login page every time before start testing the real thing

Testing locally or for your unit/e2e test? You can use the encode method from next-auth/jwt then manually add that token to your browser cookie: next-auth.session-token: <encoded jwt>. Or just setup a test oauth provider, eg google and sign in.
