Testing Django Facebook App

Question

I'm making a Django app with Fandjango and I'm trying to unit test it with Django's test framework. The only thing is, in order to test effectively I need a "signed_request" parameter that Facebook sends with every request. Right now I'm logging the requests my server gets from Facebook and copying + pasting the signed_request token I get, but that only works for a few hours at a time.

Is there a simple way to handle this without doing a mock of the whole Facebook API?

Thanks!

You can use Test Users: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/test_users/

I think the access token never expires, or at less until you delete the Test User.
