Spring MVC Test provides a convenient interface called a `RequestPostProcessor` that can be used to modify a request.
Spring Security provides a number of `RequestPostProcessor` implementations that make testing easier.
In order to use Spring Security's `RequestPostProcessor` implementations ensure the following static import is used:

====
.Java
[source,java,role="primary"]
----
import static org.springframework.security.test.web.servlet.request.SecurityMockMvcRequestPostProcessors.*;
----

.Kotlin
[source,kotlin,role="secondary"]
----
import org.springframework.security.test.web.servlet.request.SecurityMockMvcRequestPostProcessors.*
