[almighty] Starting a thread - how to best simulate a user login in ALMighty UI for test purposes?

[Todd Mancini]

GitHub was victim of the Dyn attack a couple of weeks ago, so a test
directly against GitHub likely would have failed at that point --
 therefore also having a simulated login test that passed would have helped
to identify that the problem was 'elsewhere'.
