Answer 1

describe 'authentication', ->
  describe 'POST /sessions', ->
    describe 'success', (done) ->
      it 'displays a flash', (done) ->
        request(app)
          .post('/sessions')
          .type('form')
          .field('user', 'username')
          .field('password', 'password')
          .redirects(1)
          .end (err, res) ->
            res.text.should.include('logged in')
            done()

The redirects() will follow the redirect so you can do your usual view tests.
