For Basic Access Authentication you can use the HTTPBasicAuth class from the requests module, as explained on Zeep documentation http://docs.python-zeep.org/en/master/transport.html:

from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth  # or HTTPDigestAuth, or OAuth1, etc.
from zeep import Client
from zeep.transports import Transport

client = Client('http://my-endpoint.com/production.svc?wsdl',
    transport=Transport(http_auth=HTTPBasicAuth(user, password)))
