RE: [W3C Web Crypto WG] about tests

Harry,
have tracked the references to implementer's test repository here : https://www.w3.org/2012/webcrypto/wiki/Main_Page#WG_Testing_activity, based on additional information shared recently by Eric Roman.
Netflix few test are supposed to be around here : https://github.com/Netflix/NfWebCrypto/tree/master/

It's quite important from a developer-perspective to make sure they can know they have interop, so it is important.

I've been looking at the test-suites. Unforunately, it's a large amount of work due to the uneven and non-portable nature of the tests:

Mozilla[1]: Uses a custom framework. Few tests. No net cost reduction by porting.

Google[2]: No tests per se, only test data.

Google[3]: C++ code. Again not worth porting.

Apple[4]: Custom JS framework. Very few tests. Hard to port.

So in other words, existing tests seem to require starting from scratch
(difficult) or help from the browser vendors in porting tests and covering.

Also, are all those links rights? Is there a Netflix implementation or any others with tests we should be aware of?

Would implementers be willing to help create the unified test suite?

   cheers,
     harry
