I'm writing JSFUnit test for testing my web application. Often during the tests I need switch the users, so I have done login and logout methods:

public abstract class MyTestJSF extends ServletTestCase {

     private JSFSession jsfSession;    

     @Override

     public void setUp() throws IOException { }

     protected void login(String userName, String password) throws IOException {

          WebClientSpec webClientSpec = new WebClientSpec("/form/login.jsf");

          FormAuthenticationStrategy formAuth = new FormAuthenticationStrategy(userName, password, "login_button");

          webClientSpec.setInitialRequestStrategy(formAuth);

          jsfSession = new JSFSession(webClientSpec);

     }

     protected void logout() throws IOException {

          HttpSession httpSession = (HttpSession)FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getSession(false);

          if(httpSession != null) httpSession.invalidate();

     }

}

public class MyTestUnit extends MyTestJSF {

     public void testWebPage() throws IOException {

          login("user1", "pass")

          // do something

          logout();

          login("user2", "pass")

          // do something

          logout();   

     }

}

At the beginning first call the method login() works fine, application opens new popup window and user is logged successful (popup window contain login form).

After the second call the login() JSFUnit is trying login into the opener window and I got exception "Component with name=j_username was not found on the login page."

Somehow I need to do the same action like during first call of the login() method.

I will be thankful for some hints how to resolve this issue.
