# Test certificates All certificates in this folder are used only for tests, and should not be used for any other purpose. `nonfunctional_dummy_root_ca.pem` is a root CA certificate whose private key has been discarded. It's used only by the unit tests to confirm that a valid certificate can be parsed and loaded. `rootCA.pem` is a self-signed root CA certificate and `rootCA.key` is its accompanying key. `vault.pem` and `vault.key` are a derived certificate/key pair which the Vault instance presents to clients in the integration test environment. `valid_test_cert_chain/rebuild_certs.sh` was used to generate these certificates and keys. They should already be available and ready for use in source control, but this script can be run to re-generate them if needed.
