I have a ASP.NET MVC website that uses Windows Authentication to control access. I would like to have a specflow selenium test that checks the configuration is correct by attempting to visit the site as a non-authorised user.
As we're using domain accounts to control access there isn't a username/password login screen. The credentials of the current user are automatically passed to the site by the browser.
So for my Selenium test I need to be able to run Internet Explorer as a specific user.
I have found a number of articles about windows impersonation and I can switch to my test user during the running of the test (using the code from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306158). However if I then create an InternetExplorerDriver it starts internet explorer with my credentials rather than the test user's (although this question and answer suggests that it should work https://sqa.stackexchange.com/questions/2277/using-selenium-webdriver-with-windows-authentication).
I can also explicitly start an Internet Explorer process as my test user, but I can't see a way of binding an InternetExplorerDriver to an already running Internet Explorer process, so this may be a dead end.
My code, basically taken from the MSDN page above is below. In the debugger I can see that WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name is "testUser" in all the steps of the test.
