Background

Provides interoperability tests for verifiable credential processors (issuers and verifiers) that support Ed25519Signature2020.

Install

npm i

Usage

npm test

Implementation

You will need an issuer and verifier that are conformant to the VC API and are capable of handling issuance and verification of Verifiable Credentials with the Ed25519Signature2020 proof type.

To add your implementation to this test suite, you will need to add 2 endpoints to your implementation manifest:

• A credential issuer endpoint (/credentials/issue) in the issuers property.
• A credential verifier endpoint (/credentials/verify) in the verifiers property.

All endpoints will need the tag Ed25519Signature2020.

A simplified manifest would look like this:

{
  "name": "My Company",
  "implementation": "My implementation",
  "issuers": [{
    "id": "",
    "endpoint": "https://mycompany.example/credentials/issue",
    "method": "POST",
    "tags": ["Ed25519Signature2020"]
  }],
  "verifiers": [{
    "id": "",
    "endpoint": "https://mycompany.example/credentials/verify",
    "method": "POST",
    "tags": ["Ed25519Signature2020"]
  }]
}

The example above represents an unauthenticated endpoint. You may add ZCAP or OAuth2 authentication to your endpoints. You can find an example in the vc-test-suite-implementations README.

To run the tests, some implementations may require client secrets that can be passed as environment variables to the test script. To see which implementations require client secrets, please check the implementation manifest within the vc-api-test-suite-implementations library.

Docker Integration (TODO)

We are presently working on implementing a new feature that will enable the use of Docker images instead of live endpoints. The Docker image that you provide will be started when the test suite is run. The image is expected to expose the API provided above, which will be used in the same way that live HTTP endpoints are used above.
