Python 3.5; Django 1.10.7
I am struggling to get access to the admin pages via Selenium.
I assume the issue is with the user login not being set properly - I don't
want to go via the login page/form every time, so was attempting the
session approach. Below is the code that shows the problem. The last few
lines are attempting to access a known element (appears on any admin page);
but the actual page that gets displayed is one you would see if you were
not logged in.
Any hints on how to make this work would be appreciated.
