A test data file is an ASCII text file composed of sections separated by
4
blank lines. Each section is stand-alone and independent of other
5
sections that may be in the same file, and contains one or more tests.
7
A section is composed of a sequence of fields. Each field is one or more
8
lines composed of a field name, followed by a colon (":"), followed by a
9
field body. All but the last line of a field must end with a backslash
10
("\"). If any line contains a hash mark ("#"), the hash mark and
11
everything after it on the same line is not considered part of the field
14
Each section must contain fields named AlgorithmType, Name, Source, and
15
Test. The presence and semantics of other fields depend on the algorithm
16
being tested and the tests to be run.
18
Each section may contain more than one test and therefore more than one
19
field named Test. In that case the order of the fields is significant. A
20
test should always use the last field with any given name that occurs
21
before the Test field.
25
int - small integer (less than 2^32) in decimal representation
26
string - human readable string
27
encoded string - can be one of the following
28
- quoted string: "message" means "message" without the quotes
30
- hex encoded string: 0x74657374 or 74657374 means "test"
31
- repeated string: r100 "message" to repeat "message" 100 times, or
32
r256 0x0011 to repeat 0x0011 256 times
36
AlgorithmType - string, for example "Signature", "AsymmetricCipher",
37
"SymmetricCipher", "MAC", "MessageDigest", or "KeyFactory"
38
Name - string, an algorithm name from SCAN
39
Test - string, identifies the test to run
40
Source - string, text explaining where the test data came from
41
Comment - string, other comments about the test data
42
KeyFormat - string, specifies the key format. "Component" here means
43
each component of the key or key pair is specified separately as a name,
44
value pair, with the names depending on the algorithm being tested.
45
Otherwise the value names "Key", or "PublicKey" and "PrivateKey" are
48
PublicKey - encoded string
49
PrivateKey - encoded string
50
Message - encoded string, message to be signed or verified
51
Signature - encoded string, signature to be verified or compared
53
Plaintext - encoded string
54
Ciphertext - encoded string
55
Digest - encoded string
56
TruncatedSize - int, size of truncated digest in bytes
57
Seek - int, seek location for random access ciphers
62
KeyPairValidAndConsistent - public and private keys are both valid and
63
consistent with each other
64
PublicKeyInvalid - public key validation should not pass
65
PrivateKeyInvalid - private key validation should not pass
66
Verify - signature/digest/MAC verification should pass
67
VerifyTruncated - truncated digest/MAC verification should pass
68
NotVerify - signature/digest/MAC verification should not pass
69
DeterministicSign - sign message using given seed, and the resulting
70
signature should be equal to the given signature
71
DecryptMatch - ciphertext decrypts to plaintext

removed
