Test Artifact Single Sign-on

After you have set up the sample web pages, test single sign-on and verify that the partnership configuration is successful.

Follow these steps:

1. Verify that both sides of the partnership are activated.
2. Open up a browser.
3. Enter the URL for the web page that triggers single sign-on, as follows:

   http://spapp.demo.com:80/spsample/testartifact.html

   Note: In this sample network, Federation Manager is deployed in standalone mode, therefore, the target web server is a different server than the one where Federation Manager resides.

   When entering the URL, a page is displayed with a link that reads Link to Test ARTIFACT Single Sign-on.

4. Click Link to Test ARTIFACT Single Sign-on and single sign-on is initiated.

   The user is redirected from the AuthnRequest Service at the SP to the Single Sign-on Service at the Identity Provider.

After the Identity Provider establishes a session, it directs the user back to the target resource at the Service Provider, which is welcome.html. You see the sample welcome page you created at the SP, letting you know that single sign-on was successful.
