How to sign in a user using Devise from a Rails console?

by

Here’s one way I was able to do it:

>> ApplicationController.allow_forgery_protection = false
>> app.post('/sign_in', {"user"=>{"login"=>"login", "password"=>"password"}})

Then you can do:

 >> app.get '/some_other_path_that_only_works_if_logged_in'
 >> pp app.response.body
