#### Testing TLS/SSL encryption anywhere on any port

testssl.sh is a free command line tool which checks a server's service on
any port for the support of TLS/SSL ciphers, protocols as well as some
cryptographic flaws.

Key features:

* Clear output: you can tell easily whether anything is good or bad.
* Machine readable output (CSV, two JSON formats)
* No need to install or to configure something. No gems, CPAN, pip or the like.
* Works out of the box: Linux, OSX/Darwin, FreeBSD, NetBSD, MSYS2/Cygwin, WSL (bash on Windows). Only OpenBSD needs bash.
* A Dockerfile is provided, there's also an offical container build @ dockerhub.
* Flexibility: You can test any SSL/TLS enabled and STARTTLS service, not only web servers at port 443.
* Toolbox: Several command line options help you to run *your* test and configure *your* output.
* Reliability: features are tested thoroughly.
* Privacy: It's only you who sees the result, not a third party.
* Freedom: It's 100% open source. You can look at the code, see what's going on.
* The development is open (github) and participation is welcome.

## Enable snaps on openSUSE and install testssl

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed.

You need first add the *snappy* repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor.

Tumbleweed:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy
```

Leap 15.x:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy
```

If needed, Swap out `openSUSE_Leap_15.` for, `openSUSE_Leap_16.0` if you’re using a different version of openSUSE.

With the repository added, import its GPG key:

```
sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh
```

Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new *snappy* repository:

```
sudo zypper dup --from snappy
```

Snap can now be installed with the following:

```
sudo zypper install snapd
```

You then need to either reboot, logout/login or `source /etc/profile` to have /snap/bin added to PATH.
Additionally, enable and start both the *snapd* and the *snapd.apparmor* services with the following commands:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor
```

### Install testssl
