I use pk11util to test the basic functionality of a PKCS #11 module without the need to use all of NSS. It's particularly useful in making sure that you have a PKCS #11 module that can load and initialize. I usually use it interactive, though the scripts can be useful in setting up particular tests.Also could someone tell me where the regress and reporter source is available to download, I read on the mozilla website "The Netscape PKCS #11 test suites make use of two testing tools whose source is available with the source for the test suites "I have the source code, but still need to review it for open source release. In summary, the remaining work is 1. release 'regress', 'reporter', and perhaps a third tool called 'replacer'. 2. update the test suites to work with NSS 3.x. I second Nelson's suggestion of looking into 'pk11util'.
If you have a basically function PKCS #11 module, but want to regression test it, that is what the PKCS #11 test tools were for. They tested PKCS #11 modules in the context of various NSS operation (most notably SSL). If you are working on something like a hardware accelerator, then getting regress, reporter and replacer working would be useful.
Someday a comprehensive PKCS #11 test suite bases on the PKCS #11 spec and several profiles would be useful, but to date no one has created such an animal.
