Description

Hi
I'm in a situation where our application behaves very strange when msal throws a InteractionRequiredAuthError and application attempts to solve it with acquireTokenRedirect.
The problem is that Interaction required only happens once every few days and the whole flow becomes very difficult to troubleshoot and reproduce.

Is there any way one can force such an error? Just unit testing the scenarios is not enough, because how acquireTokenPopup/ acquireTokenRedirect behave together with the browser and interaction with Azure is also very tightly coupled.

If you're testing manually you can delete the refresh token from local/session storage and set CacheLookupPolicy to "RefreshToken".

If you're attempting to write tests I recommend mocking the call.
