flask-session

I am building a tests for my Flask application, in one of the test there is a need to modify a session key (which itself is a list of values), and then check that app behaviour is altered by the modified key content. I'm using an approach from Flask documentation for modifying session from tests. Here is an excerpt example code, to demonstrate the problem (I have added print statements, along with what they are printing during test run): my_app.py from flask import ( Flask, session, ) app = Flask(__name__) app.secret_key = 'bad secret key' @app.route('/create_list/', methods=['POST']) def

I want to have a dynamic navigation menu that shows "Login" if the user is not currently logged on, and "Logout" if the user is logged in. I'm using code similar to the following: import flask import flask_nav import flask_nav.elements as fne frontend = flask.Blueprint('frontend', __name__) application = flask.Flask(__name__) mySess = flask_session.Session() flask_appconfig.AppConfig(application) flask_bootstrap.Bootstrap(application) application.register_blueprint(frontend) application.config['BOOTSTRAP_SERVE_LOCAL'] = True application.config['SSL'] = True application.secret_key = SECRET_KEY
