Some browsers (Chrome, for example) provide settings that allow users to
continue browsing sessions after closing and re-opening the browser. In
some cases, this can interfere with the
:setting:`SESSION_EXPIRE_AT_BROWSER_CLOSE` setting and prevent sessions
from expiring on browser close. Please be aware of this while testing
Django applications which have the
:setting:`SESSION_EXPIRE_AT_BROWSER_CLOSE` setting enabled.
