Configuration

Uninstall any existing version of the BankID Security App and then install the latest version from Google Play Store (Android) or AppGallery (Huawei). Then configure the app as follows:

1. Put the phone in airplane mode.
2. Launch the BankID app. Dismiss any network failure warning or similar.
3. Go to About BankID.
4. Make a "long press" (i.e. press and hold) on the heading Error information.
5. Enter kundtest in the box that appears.
6. Exit the BankID app.
7. Force quit the BankID app.

The BankID app is thus configured for the test environment.

Note that the BankID app cannot be run in emulated environments.

Uninstall any existing version of BankID Security App. Install BankID Security App from App Store.

In Settings → BankID → Developer → Server enter cavainternal.test.bankid.com.

BankID Security App will now connect to the test server. Please note that the app must be uninstalled to undo the change.

To use the client for test you must configure it for test. If you change configuration your existing BankIDs will be blocked. Follow the backup-restore procedure to avoid that.

Start by backing up the production environment

1. Exit the BankID application.
2. Open the BankID folder (see below).
3. Copy the entire content to a separate location to be able to restore the production configuration later on.

Create a set up for test

1. Exit the BankID Application.
2. Open the BankID\Config folder, see below.
3. Create a plain text file named ”CavaServerSelector.txt”, containing the text ”kundtest”. The content must be plain text and lower case. The file may be created using a text editor, e.g. Notepad (Windows) or Pico in a Terminal window (OS X).

Note: Existing production BankIDs will be blocked in the test environment as soon as you start the BankID Application again, so you can just remove them from the BankID Application GUI. Once you restore the production environment, your production BankIDs will be available again.

Backup the test environment

1. Exit the BankID Security Application.
2. Open the BankID folder (see below).
3. Copy the entire content to a separate location to be able to restore the test configuration later on.

Switch between production and test later on

1. Exit the BankID Application.
2. Replace the existing BankID folder with the backup copy for the desired environment.

Location of BankID folder

• Windows: %appdata%
• OS X: ~/Library/Application Support

Note that the BankID folder is created the fist time the BankID Application is started, so if you can't find it, please try to start and exit the BankID Application.

The Config folder is a subfolder of the BankID folder.

IMPORTANT: A BankID enrolled for production can only be used or administered in BankID Application configured for production and a BankID enrolled for test (kundtest) can only be used or administered in BankID Application configured for test.

Trying to use or administer a BankID in the BankID Application configured wrong will block the BankID.
