Description

Redmine 4.0 and the current trunk depend on request_store gem 1.0.5 which was released in 2013. The reason why Redmine uses such an old version is that request_store 1.0.6 and later breaks some tests (see r13181).

However, we should not continue to use the very old version of request_store. We should make efforts to update the gem to the latest version.

This is probably caused by this commit. In 1.0.6, the thread store is cleared after a request has finished (and not before a request started as before). That means, that after the middleware was passed on the way up again, User.current is not valid anymore.

The solution for this would be to fix the integration tests to not rely on an "old" User.current. In fact, not having this old value still set after a request is a good thing and solves many potential leakage issues.

The thread store is cleared after the request ends. Therefore, the value of User.current using RequestStore is undefined.

I don't think it makes sense to validate User.current after the request ends.
You can update request_store gem by changing the test as follows.
