The API is explicitly designed to avoid hardcoding a fixed notion
of usernames + passwords, so I think the test driver should do the
same. ie we'd want XML in terms of credential types.

  <auth>
    <subject>
      <credential type='username'>rich</credential>
      <credential type='password'>123456</credential>
    </subject>
    ...more subjects...
  </auth>

Regards.
