Test script authoring guide

A test script is a JSON document that drives a deterministic dialogue with the card over the local server: ordered actions (each sends something and checks the response) and expectations (each fetches the proactive command the card announced, checks it, and sends the scripted TERMINAL RESPONSE).

Scripts are imported into the PWA (Simulator → Test script → Import) and run with Run against the equipped card, or POSTed directly to /api/test/run (see docs/api.md). While a run is active the card belongs to the script.

Document shape

{"name": "applet RFM update",
 "steps": [
   {"type": "action", "kind": "scp80", "params": {…}, "check": {…}, "label": "optional"},
   {"type": "expect", "command": "REFRESH", "qualifier": "00",
    "checks": [{"kind": "files", "value": "3F007F206F07"}],
    "respond": {"result": "ok"}}
 ]}

Every step may carry on_fail: "error" (default - stops the run) or "warning" (continues, the report shows ⚠). Each entry of checks may override it with its own on_fail.

Presets: where the keys, TARs and counters come from

An SCP80 action never carries key material. The PWA sends the stored preset's id with the run; the server resolves it and takes:

• the keyset - the step's kvn (1–15) or the preset's first keyset,
• the keys and the counter of that keyset,
• the TAR table with each TAR's MSL (Minimum SPI1).

So before a run the matched preset (ICCID) must contain the keyset and, for every TAR the script addresses, either a TAR entry with its MSL or an explicit spi1 in the step. Counter handling: the run starts from the keyset's stored counter and persists each accepted packet's next value, so consecutive runs continue correctly.

Actions

{"type": "action", "kind": "…", "params": {…}, "check": {…}}

kind	params	notes
envelope	event 0–255, data hex (optional)	ENVELOPE(Event Download)
menu-select	item_id 1–255	ENVELOPE(Menu Selection)
file-write	path, data, mode auto/binary/record, record 1–255	UPDATE BINARY/RECORD
file-read	path, mode, record	READ BINARY/RECORD; verify with check.data
apdu	apdu hex	raw transport, no auto-handler
scp80	apdu xor sp (optional source), kvn, tar, spi1, spi2	secured packet to the TAR
status	attempts 1–1000, interval_ms 0–10000	with attempts > 1 the default SW check is 91?? (poll until a command)

path is /-separated: MF (or 3F00) or an ADF name/AID first, then FIDs or file names - e.g. MF/7F20/6F07, ADF.USIM/EF.TEST.

check on actions

"check": {"sw": {"mode": "mask", "value": "91??"},
          "data": {"mode": "exact", "value": "0271…"},
          "por": "ok"}

• sw - default {"mode": "exact", "value": "9000"} (a status action with attempts > 1 defaults to the 91?? mask).
• data - the response data (for SCP80: the inline PoR packet).
• por - "any" (default, no check), "ok" (response_status == por_ok), "none" (no PoR expected).
• A plain hex string is exact; a value containing ? is a mask. A mask must have exactly the same length as the actual value (? is a per-nibble wildcard) - e.g. 91?? matches 9102, 027100???? matches a 4-byte prefix.

Expectations

{"type": "expect", "command": "SEND SHORT MESSAGE",
 "qualifier": "00",
 "checks": [{"kind": "por", "status": "por_ok", "sw": "9000"}],
 "respond": {"result": "ok"}}

The card must have announced a command (91XX) in the previous step - the runner never polls by itself. command is a name (as shown in the proactive log) or a hex type; ANY/* skips the type check. qualifier is the command-details byte 3 (one byte, exact/mask).

Content checks

kind	fields	checks
text	mode contains/exact, value, case_sensitive	alpha identifier / text
item	id, text, mode, case_sensitive	items of SELECT ITEM / SET UP MENU
raw	mode exact/mask, value	the whole fetched command (hex, exact length needed)
por	status, sw, data	the PoR carried by a SEND SHORT MESSAGE (see below)
files	files (list of path hex strings) or a comma/space separated string	the File List of a REFRESH, TS 102 223 §8.18; matched order-insensitively

por needs an SCP80 step before the expectation: the TPDU of the SEND SHORT MESSAGE is decoded with that step's keyset, SPI and counter. status is the decoded response status name (por_ok, cntr_low, rc_cc_ds_failed, …; ok is accepted for por_ok); sw is the R-APDU status word and data the R-APDU response data (exact/mask) - both come from the decoded response (scripting AB/AF/compact forms). A PoR split over several SMS parts is accumulated across SEND SHORT MESSAGE expectations: put the por check on the step that completes the sequence (intermediate steps should use raw or no PoR check).

respond

The TERMINAL RESPONSE for the fetched command: result (name or hex - ok, partial, missing, refused, not_understood, modified, cancel, back, timeout, no_response), item_id, text+dcs, raw (extra COMPREHENSION-TLVs before the result).

The two PoR transports (SPI2)

1. Inline - the card answers the ENVELOPE 9000 with the PoR in the response data. Verify on the action: "por": "ok" and/or "data": {"mode": "mask", "value": "…"}.
2. PoR-in-submit (SPI2 bit 20, e.g. spi2: "21") - the card announces a SEND SHORT MESSAGE (91XX); the PoR is inside its SMS TPDU:

{"type": "action", "kind": "scp80",
 "params": {"apdu": "…", "tar": "B00001", "spi2": "21"},
 "check": {"sw": {"mode": "mask", "value": "91??"}, "por": "none"}},
{"type": "expect", "command": "SEND SHORT MESSAGE",
 "checks": [{"kind": "por", "status": "por_ok", "sw": "9000"}],
 "respond": {"result": "ok"}}

If the card announces the SEND SHORT MESSAGE only on a later STATUS poll, insert a status action (attempts > 1) before the expectation.

"No actions" after a trigger

An exact SW check is the assertion: "check": {"sw": "9000"} fails if the card answers 91XX (a command was announced); the runner also errors on a pending command the next step does not expect.

Worked examples

RFM update → file change → REFRESH (NAA init + full FCN)

{"name": "applet RFM update",
 "steps": [
  {"type": "action", "kind": "scp80",
   "params": {"apdu": "80E2900000", "tar": "B00001", "spi2": "01"},
   "check": {"sw": {"mode": "mask", "value": "91??"}, "por": "none"},
   "label": "RFM update"},
  {"type": "expect", "command": "REFRESH", "qualifier": "00",
   "checks": [{"kind": "files", "value": "3F007F206F07"}],
   "respond": {"result": "ok"}},
  {"type": "action", "kind": "file-read", "params": {"path": "MF/7F20/6F07"},
   "check": {"data": {"mode": "mask", "value": "AA??CC"}}}
 ]}

qualifier 00 is "NAA Initialization and Full File Change Notification"; the files check asserts the exact set of changed files the applet reports. For this mode the terminal must not reset the card (TS 102 223 §6.4.7), so the run continues - the following file-read verifies the updated content.

Incoming data → particular PoR, no other actions

Inline PoR:

{"name": "applet data (inline PoR)",
 "steps": [
  {"type": "action", "kind": "scp80",
   "params": {"apdu": "80E2900000", "tar": "B00001", "spi2": "01"},
   "check": {"sw": "9000", "por": "ok",
             "data": {"mode": "mask", "value": "027100????0102"}}}
 ]}

PoR-in-submit (with the transport asserted by the expectation):

{"name": "applet data (SEND SM PoR)",
 "steps": [
  {"type": "action", "kind": "scp80",
   "params": {"apdu": "80E2900000", "tar": "B00001", "spi2": "21"},
   "check": {"sw": {"mode": "mask", "value": "91??"}, "por": "none"}},
  {"type": "expect", "command": "SEND SHORT MESSAGE",
   "checks": [{"kind": "por", "status": "por_ok"}],
   "respond": {"result": "ok"}}
 ]}

Run errors worth knowing

• SCP80 preset is incomplete: … - the matched preset has no complete keyset; step N: keyset K is not defined in the preset - the step's kvn is outside the preset's keysets.
• no MSL for TAR … - set it in the Cards tab or pass spi1 - the step's TAR has no entry in the preset and the step carries no spi1.
• no proactive command pending … - an expectation ran without a 91XX from the previous step (add a status action when the card delivers on poll).
• card verdict: no PoR (the card sent none for SPI2 …) - an SCP80 operation expected a PoR that never arrived (check SPI2 and the transport).

Known limitations

• The runner executes one command at a time and never polls by itself; a proactive command that arrives only on a STATUS poll needs an explicit status action.
• A por check only decodes SEND SHORT MESSAGE commands; the inline transport is checked on the action (por/data).
• files matches the File List as a set (order-insensitive); duplicate paths are kept.
