Test vectors
============
Testing the correctness of the primitives implemented in each ``cryptography``
backend requires trusted test vectors. Where possible these vectors are
obtained from official sources such as `NIST`_ or `IETF`_ RFCs. When this is
not possible ``cryptography`` has chosen to create a set of custom vectors
using an official vector file as input to verify consistency between
implemented backends.
Vectors are kept in the `cryptography_vectors` package rather than within our
main test suite.

Creating test vectors
---------------------
When official vectors are unavailable ``cryptography`` may choose to build
its own using existing vectors as source material.
Current custom vectors
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ``ec_private_key.pem`` - Contains an Elliptic Curve key generated by OpenSSL
from the curve ``secp256r1``.
* ``ec_private_key_encrypted.pem`` - Contains the same Elliptic Curve key as
``ec_private_key.pem``, except that it is encrypted with AES-256 with the
password "123456".
* ``ec_public_key.pem`` - Contains the public key corresponding to
``ec_private_key.pem``, generated using OpenSSL.
* ``rsa_private_key.pem`` - Contains an RSA 2048 bit key generated using
OpenSSL, protected by the secret "123456" with DES3 encryption.
* ``rsa_public_key.pem`` - Contains an RSA 2048 bit public generated using
OpenSSL from ``rsa_private_key.pem``.
* ``dsaparam.pem`` - Contains 2048-bit DSA parameters generated using OpenSSL;
contains no keys.
* ``dsa_private_key.pem`` - Contains a DSA 2048 bit key generated using
OpenSSL from the parameters in ``dsaparam.pem``, protected by the secret
"123456" with DES3 encryption.
* ``dsa_public_key.pem`` - Contains a DSA 2048 bit key generated using OpenSSL
from ``dsa_private_key.pem``.

If official test vectors appear in the future the custom generated vectors
should be discarded.
Any vectors generated by this method must also be prefixed with the following
header format (substituting the correct information):
.. code-block:: python
# CAST5 CBC vectors built for https://github.com/pyca/cryptography
# Derived from the AESVS MMT test data for CBC
# Verified against the CommonCrypto and Go crypto packages
