Ruby on Rails

The problem is that the session is lost as soon as the "visit" command is invoked.  How do I get the test to retain the session?

Also, that link you cited revolves around RSpec instead of Minitest.

Are there any good examples of someone who has successfully done what I'm trying to do?  I can't possibly be the first person to use Minitest for testing the visibility of a page for different types of users.

Hello Jason,

I think need to change some code. You need to test sections of your app
independently, so if you want to check if the view is only available for
Admins, you can login it with test methods provided by Devise and
later, visit the admins_path.

Instead of call login_admin, you can use:
   login_as(user, :scope => :user)
   visit admin_path

   # asserts...

In another test, check if an admin can login with the form (like
login_admin). You need to set Warden to test mode including this line at
top of your integration tests:

   include Warden::Test::Helpers
   Warden.test_mode!
