Description

Feature request

Add tests for node_creation success

test_security includes tests that target the authentication plugin. I see that it's making the node_creation fail when security env. variables are not set or are not set correctly. Perhaps we should also add the successful cases where a node is authentication and able to be created.

Research direction

Start by reading the existing test_security cases that exercise node_creation failures when authentication security environment variables are missing or incorrect. Identify how those cases construct and authenticate a node, then add coverage for successful node creation with valid security settings. Done means the successful cases run alongside the existing failure tests and pass.
