Well, I believe it's possible to get the authenticated user from anywhere using the AuthComponent::user() static method (cake 2.x). I tried it here, and it worked.. but I couldn't test it using TDD, I found it veeery hard.. Could anyone help? How can I test a model that depends on a logged user? Is it right (this kind of dependency)?
