SAMLscope and the Missing Conformance Suite

samlscope.com Observed source

Editorial interest 83/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An open-source, black-box test suite that evaluates SAML identity providers and service providers against the Kantara Implementation Profile.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-04 issue.

Field notes

The suite evaluates SAML implementations by driving standard browser, SLO, ECP, and metadata flows rather than consulting vendor administration APIs. It organizes evidence into cumulative Quick, Standard, and Full plans, and distinguishes protocol-observed, operator-assisted, and self-attested results. The page says result JSON, report.html, and publication are implemented, while external-observation coverage and reference-implementation acceptance testing remain in progress.
