title: Log-in through authlogic without having to fill in form every time
body: <p>I have a number of Cucumber scenarios which run with capybara on a project I am working on.</p>
  
  <p>Most of these scenarios start with a "Given I am logged in" step. Currently my implementation of this is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>  visit path_to('the login page')
    fill_in('Username', :with =&gt; 'user')
    fill_in('Password', :with =&gt; 'password')
    click_button('Login')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This works fine, however it is becoming a bit time consuming having to load and submit the login form before every single scenario.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to simply set up the session in this step without having to go through the form every single time?</p>
