+ === Disconnected (Fake) Mode
54
+
55
+ I've often found myself working on a CAS-ified project while away from the office
56
+ and unable to access the CAS server. To support this type of disconnected development,
57
+ just substitute in the CasrackTheAuthenticator::Fake middleware. It acts like
58
+ CasrackTheAuthenticator::Simple, but it uses HTTP Basic authentication against a
59
+ preset list of usernames.
60
+
61
+ A common pattern for Rails apps is to create a disconnected environment:
62
+
63
+ ==== 1: set up <tt>[rails_root]/config/database.yml</tt>
64

65
+ development: &DEV
66
+ adapter: sqlite3
67
+ database: db/development.sqlite3
