Rails - Jan 2008 - Error with session ids in integration tests (Rails 2.0.x) ?

Hello list

In writing integration tests dealing with session variables, I am
coming across some interesting behavior. It seems that the session id
changes after every request.

class RatingIntegrationTest < ActionController::IntegrationTest
  def test_anonymous_rating

    open_session do |sess|
      sess.post "/rating/create?
rating[rating]=5&rating[video_id]=#{ default_video.id }"

      ## THIS GIVES ONE RESULT
      puts sess.cookies["_myapp_session_id"]

      sess.post( "/rating/create?
rating[rating]=1&rating[video_id]=#{ default_video.id }" )

      ## THIS GIVES ANOTHER RESULT!
      puts sess.cookies["_myapp_session_id"]
    end

  end
end

Is there a better way to get the session id?
Is this code incorrect?

Thanks in advance,
David
