Test IdPs

If you are using OpenAthens Keystone

Your own OpenAthens accounts can be used for testing. To add additional IdPs before you are live, use the additional identity providers option on your connection and add their metadata.

If you are using other software (e.g. Shibboleth)

To test with your own OpenAthens accounts, you will need to add their metadata to your system: https://login.openathens.net/saml/2/metadata-idp/YOUR_OPENATHENS_DOMAIN.

Testing by the OpenAthens Service Desk

When you submit your site for publication in the metadata our service desk will run some tests based on the best practices and our domain experience to make sure things will work well for our mutual customers. To avoid delays, you should pre-enable access for their test accounts, covered under: Getting production ready with Keystone
