Maybe this would be a good opportunity to evaluate Puffin (www.puffinhome.org)? Security API calls through unit tests are one thing, but testing the whole functioning system from the outside seems like the best approach. Puffin should be a Zope partner, IMHO.

Hi,
I'd like to build a suite of security tests for a product I'm writing using unittest.py.
Is this possible?
I thought about using newSecurityManager with various known users, and restrictedTraverse to get to the appropriate methods, but then how do I test if those methods are callable?
cheers,
Chris
PS: How is all this being tackled in Zope 3?
