Testcafe introduce entry point for tests after authorization

I have a test suite(fixture) with multiple functional tests for test cafe. They look something like this:

fixture('Test suite')
  .page(login_url)
  .beforeEach(async (t) => {
    await t.maximizeWindow()
    await page.signIn('username', 'pass');
  });

test('Test case 1', async (t) => {
  await t.expect(page.title.textContent).eql('My Page');}
test('Test case 2', async (t) => {
  await do some other stuff}

This obviously wastes a lot of time before each test because we need to log in each time. How do I log in once, set that page as an entry point, and start each test from that page?

You can use the TestCafe Roles mechanism to log in only once. All further tests will not require additional authentication. Take a look at the following article for details: https://devexpress.github.io/testcafe/documentation/guides/advanced-guides/authentication.html#user-roles
