This document defines interoperability test cases for Canonical XML 1.1 [XML-C14N1.1] and XML Signature Syntax and Processing, Second Edition [XMLDSIG2]. The changes tested include C14N11 handling of attributes in the XML namespace, including xml:id and xml:base, appropriate C14N11 nodeset to octet stream transform processing, modifications to RFC 3986 dot segment processing for C14N11, and RFC 4514 string encoding of Distinguished Names. The tests include standalone C14N11 tests as well as tests integrated with XML signature generation and validation. This document also includes earlier test cases used in XML Signature [XMLDSIG] for regression testing.
This section describes the status of this document at the time of its publication. Other documents may supersede this document. A list of current W3C publications and the latest revision of this technical report can be found in the W3C technical reports index at http://www.w3.org/TR/.
The set of test cases documented in this report was used to provide evidence for implementation support for the Canonical XML 1.1 and XML Signature Proposed (Edited) Recommendations. While the Working Group might publish revised versions of this document to include mild improvements of the test documentation, there is no expectation that the core material in this document will change. It should be noted that no material in this document is normative; in particular, passing the tests documented in this document is neither necessary, nor sufficient for a conformance claim against either Canonical XML 1.1 or XML Signature 2nd Edition.
This document was developed by the XML Security Specifications Maintenance Working Group.

The test cases include standalone C14N 1.1 tests and test cases involving XML signature generation and validation. XML signatures are generated according to the details specified in this document.
All the test cases are positive (signatures that are valid).
Applications should validate these signatures and check that they are valid.
This section summarizes the notation used for identification of test cases.
A test case identifier matches the following pattern, and the syntax for describing the pattern is borrowed from section 2.0 of [XMLDSIG] (where "?" denotes zero or one occurrence; "+" denotes one or more occurrences; "*" denotes zero or more occurrences) and "|" denotes a choice.
Rec/(SubRec/)?(SpecificIssue-(SpecificSubIssue-)?)+TestNumber
The Rec part identifies the source recommendation for the test case.
The SubRec part identifies a recommendation that is tested in the context of Rec.
The SpecificIssue part identifies the issue to be tested by the test case. The optional SpecificSubIssue part further refines the issue to be tested.
The TestNumber part numbers the test case. It must be an integer number or an integer number followed by a lowercase letter.
The next section identifies codes used throughout this document.

Major contributions to this document were received from Juan Carlos Cruellas, UPC; Konrad Lanz, A-SIT; Sean Mullan, Sun Microsystems; Pratik Datta, Oracle; Frederick Hirsch, Nokia; Bruce Rich, IBM; Thomas Roessler, W3C. The test cases in this document were reviewed by the members of the W3C XML Security Specifications Maintenance Working Group.
The following sub-sections describe each of the test cases and are grouped by Recommendation and Issue.
The IETF/W3C XML-DSig Working Group produced an interoperability test matrix that can be found at [XMLDSIG-interop].
The set of test cases in this section are designed to test the C14N11 handling of attributes in the xml namespace. The input for each of these test cases is an XML document and an XPath document subset expression. Two different sets of tests are included based on the test cases in this section.
Standalone tests: no XML signature generation or validation is required. The XPath document subset expression is applied to the input document. These tests are used to check that the implementation for [XML-C14N1.1] behaves correctly.
Integrated tests with XML signatures: In these set of tests, an XML signature is generated based on the input document and a corresponding XPath Filtering Transform as indicated in the tables. For these set of tests, the following rules apply:
The XML Signature is generated using the HMAC-SHA1 SignatureMethod algorithm and a secret key with the value: "secret".getBytes("ASCII").
The Transforms element contains a sequence of two transforms:
An XPath Filtering Transform that contains an XPath expression that depends on the test case.
A Canonical XML 1.1 Transform.
xml:lang attributeThe set of test cases in this section test the C14N11 handling of xml:lang attributes.
Below is the input document for the test cases in this section:

xml:base attributeThe set of test cases in this section test the C14N11 handling of xml:base attributes.
Three sets of test cases have been defined:
Tests that check if the implementation correctly propagates the xml:base attributes through the node tree.
Tests that check if the implementation correctly processes the examples involving xml:base propagation in the [XML-C14N1.1] specification.
Tests that check if the implementation correctly processes the examples in the Appendix of [XML-C14N1.1]
xml:base attribute propagationThis section defines test cases that test how implementations propagate xml:base attributes through the tree when the result of the filtering is a document subset.
Below is the input document for the test cases in this section:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <ietf:c14n11XmlBaseDoc1 xmlns:ietf="http://www.ietf.org"\ + xmlns:w3c="http://www.w3.org"\ + xml:base="http://xmlbase.example.org/xmlbase0/"> <ietf:e1 xml:base="/xmlbase1/"> <ietf:e11 xml:base="/xmlbase11/"> <ietf:e111 xml:base="/xmlbase111/"/> </ietf:e11> <ietf:e12 at="2"> <ietf:e121 xml:base="/xmlbase121/"/> </ietf:e12> </ietf:e1> <ietf:e2> <ietf:e21 xml:base="/xmlbase21/"/> </ietf:e2> <ietf:e3> <ietf:e31 at="3"/> </ietf:e3> </ietf:c14n11XmlBaseDoc1>
The document's root element ietf:c14n11XmlBaseDoc1 defines an xml:base attribute. This element contains three children elements.
The first element ietf:e1 has another xml:base attribute. All the ietf:e1's descendant elements have a xml:base attribute. Transforms that select subsets of ietf:e1's descendants will test how each level in the tree of elements incorporates its corresponding part to the value of the final xml:base.
The second element ietf:e2 does not have a xml:base attribute, but its child element, ietf:e21 has a xml:base attribute. Transforms that select ietf:e21 will test how it takes the value of xml:base from an ancestor different than its parent.
As for the third element, neither it nor any of its descendants have a xml:base attribute. Transforms that select ietf:e3 or any of its descendants will test how they inherit the xml:base attribute from the root element without any further processing.

Below is the input document from section 3.8 of [XML-C14N1.1] for the test case c14n11/xmlbase-c14n11spec-102 below:
<!DOCTYPE doc [ <!ATTLIST e2 xml:space (default|preserve) 'preserve'> <!ATTLIST e3 id ID #IMPLIED> ]> <doc xmlns="http://www.ietf.org" xmlns:w3c="http://www.w3.org"\ + xml:base="http://www.example.com/something/else"> <e1> <e2 xmlns="" xml:id="abc" xml:base="../bar/"> <e3 id="E3" xml:base="foo"/> </e2> </e1> </doc>
| Input details | The input document shown above. |

This section defines test cases for checking if implementations are compliant with [XML-C14N1.1], specifically the normative rules in the Document Subsets section. Informative examples are given in the Appendix of C14N11.
Each test case in this section specifies an input string, representing a URI that must be processed according to the modified Remove Dot Segments algorithm described in Section 2.4 (Document Subsets) of [XML-C14N1.1].
Each test case appears in a row of the table shown below. The first column identifies the input URI that has to be processed. The second column shows the corresponding output.

The test cases in section [TestCases-C14n11] are performed in the context of XMLDSig as well. Here it should be noted that this is performed in a different location (i.e. xmldsig/c14n11/) and the XPath-Filter expression in the ds:Transform/ds:XPath should be equal to the filter step of the XPath expressions in section [TestCases-C14n11] (cf. explanation). The test cases are specified by an "unsigned" ds:Signature (without ds:DigestValue and ds:SignatureValue) in files in xmldsig/c14n11/ having the postfix ...-template.xml.
The set of test cases in this section test the Reference Generation steps of [XMLDSIG2] and its rules that manage the contents of the Transforms element when nodeset to octet-stream conversions are to be performed by canonicalization.
General rules for these test cases:
Test cases contain a ds:Transforms element with one child, containing a XPath filter that depends on the test case.

This section defines test cases that test if implementations behave correctly when processing both schema-based xpointers and short-name xpointers with regards to comments present in the to be signed xml data object.
The following rules apply to the test cases in this section:
As the model processing is defined in [XMLDSIG2], the test cases are based on XML signatures. For each test case, an XML signature will be generated and validated. The signatures will be enveloped signatures when the URI attribute is referencing the root element and enveloping when the URI attribute is referencing an element using its Id attribute.
The input for the test cases is the to be signed xml data object shown below and the ds:Reference's URI attribute value (a schema-based xpointer or a short-name pointer).
The ds:Reference for enveloped signatures will eventually contain two Transform elements, namely; the enveloped signature transform and the conversion from node set data to octet stream (canonical XML 1.1).
Below is the input document for the test cases in this section:

This Working group has identified a number of differences between [RFC 4514] and [RFC 2253]. They are described in this e-mail within the XML Security Specifications Maintenance Working Group e-mail list archive. This section contains test cases designed for checking that applications can parse and generate RFC 4514 Distinguished Names with these differences.
The following rules apply for the test cases defined in this section:
The input to each test case is an XML Signature. Each signature contains an X509SubjectName or X509IssuerSerial element with an RFC 4514 Distinguished Name.
To resolve the key, the application must find a certificate containing a matching issuer/serial or subject DN from the certificates that are contained in the "certs" directory. This verifies that the implementation can parse the RFC 4514 DN and find a matching certificate with an equivalent subject or issuer DN.
Signature generation is also required. A PKCS#12 KeyStore containing the private keys used to generate the signatures is in the file "certs/keystore.p12". The keystore password is "secret". The key entry name is the same as the corresponding certificate file name (without the ".crt" part).
The generated signature should contain an X509SubjectName or X509IssuerSerial element with an RFC 4514 distinguished name as specified in the "[RFC-4514] DN" row of each of the tables in this section. However, if an implementation does not support an optional encoding as specified by RFC 4514, it is acceptable to generate a DN that is not strictly equivalent to those in the table but that is still RFC 4514 compliant.
| Input details | The input is an XML Signature containing an X509SubjectName in RFC 4514 format. The DN contains one Relative Distinguished Name whose attribute type keyword is encoded with one alphabetic character, and another Relative Distinguished Name whose attribute type keyword is encoded with two characters. RFC 4514 allows attribute type keywords to be of length 1, whereas RFC 2253 (erroneously) requires them to be at least length 2. |
|---|---|
| Rationale | Check processing of attribute type keywords by tools implementing [RFC 4514]. |

The set of test cases in this section are designed to test the representation of Distinguished Names as Strings as specified by [RFC 4514] and augmented by the optional encoding rules of section 4.4.4.1 of [XMLDSIG2].
The same rules defined in section 3.3.4.1 apply to the test cases in this section.
Also, with respect to signature generation, if an implementation does not support an optional encoding as specified by RFC 4514 or XMLDSIG2, it is acceptable to generate a DN that is not strictly equivalent to those in the table but that is still RFC 4514 compliant.
| Input details | The input is an XML Signature containing an X509SubjectName in RFC 4514 format. The DN contains a Relative Distinguished Name containing trailing space characters that have been escaped as "\20" instead of "\ ", as specified by the optional encoding rules of [XMLDSIG2]. |
|---|---|
| Rationale | Check that implementations correctly manage escaping of trailing space characters. |
