Test Key Files Copy Chapter

All test key files in this directory were generated with openssl version 3 or greater by executing the genkeys
script in this directory. For example:

$ openssl version
OpenSSL 3.1.2 1 Aug 2023 (Library: OpenSSL 3.1.2 1 Aug 2023)
$ ./genkeys

The genkeys script creates, for each relevant JWA standard algorithm ID:

1. A (non-password-protected) PKCS8 private key, e.g. RS256.pkcs8.pem
2. It's complement public key as an X.509 public key .pem file, e.g. RS256.pub.pem
3. A self-signed X.509 certificate for the associated key valid for 1000 years, e.g. RS256.crt.pem

Each file name is prefixed with the JWA (signature or curve) algorithm identifier, allowing for easy file lookup
based on the SignatureAlgorithm#getId() or EdwardsCurve#getId() value when authoring tests.

Warning

Naturally, these files are intended for testing purposes only and should never be used in a production system.
