Error 404 when trying to use Facebook test user login_url

Question

If I programmatically create a Facebook user for verification , the login_urlnew user does not work. Acquiring login_url returns a 404 error.

Pared-down example (in Python). The last two lines cause a problem:

import requests
from urlparse import parse_qs
APP_ID = "<Facebook App ID>"
APP_SECRET = "<Facebook Client Secret>"

# Get app access token - this works
response = requests.get('https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token',
                        params={'grant_type': "client_credentials",
                                'client_id': APP_ID, 'client_secret': APP_SECRET})
app_access_token = parse_qs(response.content)['access_token'][0]

# Create test user - this works
response = requests.post('https://graph.facebook.com/%s/accounts/test-users' % APP_ID,
                         data={'access_token': app_access_token, 'installed': "true"})
test_user = response.json()
login_url = test_user['login_url']
print login_url  # http://developers.facebook.com/checkpoint/test-user-login/...

# Get cookied for login - see /questions/1533011/facebook-test-accounts-using-selenium-failing-to-log-in-my-fake-users/4631519#4631519
session = requests.Session()
session.get("https://www.facebook.com/", allow_redirects=True)

# Login test user - THIS FAILS
response = session.get(login_url)
print response.status_code  # 404

print response.status_code  # 200
