Hey @ror-surgeon, I'm not really sure how to reproduce, but it sounds like the user is being logged out. I'd recommend forking and adding debugging to see what's going on. Also, if you have a separate admin model, it won't work with Pretender.

I have a seperate admin side . Did you have any alternative solution or gem ?

switch_user may support it, but I'm not sure.
