Testing environment

Description

This is the initial environment for testing services against the GEANT AAI Service to ensure the future connection works correctly.

It is the same environment as Production services with a restricted group of people who can access the service (members of the Sandbox group - go to 1.2.).

In this environment, you can test:

  • The authentication flow while connecting your service using SAML or OIDC protocol
  • Configuration of your new service
  • Processing user's attributes (userID, username, name, email, affiliation) and entitlements (groups the user is part of)

How to become a member of the Sandbox Group

While accessing the service connected to the Test environment for the first time, the user will get a message denying access to the service (unless the user is already a member of the Sandbox group).

As part of this message, there is a registration link for registering into the Sandbox group.

From then on, users will see a warning about the service status on the Consent Page.

Requirements

The required fields in the registration form are less strict for the Testing environment. As you can find here: Required fields for Service Registration (Test environment column)

Only mandatory information for the service connection is needed.

The reason is to be able to test the service even before all requirements are ready.
