OCSP Requestor Test Suite Data Sheet

Test Suite: OCSP Requestor Test Suite

Direction: Client

The Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) is a protocol for determining the status of a digital certificate without requiring Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs). The revocation check by an online protocol is timely and does not require fetching large lists of revoked certificates on the client side. This test suite can be used to test OCSP Requestor implementations.
