=head1 NAME

CGI::Application::Plugin::Authentication::Driver::Dummy - Dummy Authentication driver which
lets anyone authenticate regardless of the password they provide

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use base qw(CGI::Application);
 use CGI::Application::Plugin::Authentication;

  __PACKAGE__->authen->config(
        DRIVER => 'Dummy',
  );

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This Driver is the anti-authentication driver, since it doesn't check the
credentials at all, and just accepts whatever the user has entered.
It can be useful in development, or if you want a guest based system without
passwords.


=head1 EXAMPLE

  __PACKAGE__->authen->config(
        DRIVER => 'Dummy',
  );


=head1 METHODS

=head2 verify_credentials

This method will automatically return the first credential as the username without checking
anything else.
