The Complete Guide to testing apps & installing test BankID

Computer and mobile

General principles for personal data

  1. We should avoid real personal data (like SSN, email, telephone number, name, address...) in Sandbox whenever possible.

  2. If we need to use real personal data (for instance because Mobile BankID is needed for a 3rd party service like Tink, or because Sandbox forces us to use a real email) you must use our own personal data and delete them (offboard user) afterward when they are not needed anymore.

  3. Always create test users by following the instructions on this page.

  4. Never use fejk.se or other random personal info generators for generating Sandbox accounts

Test user

To avoid using real SSN in Sandbox, Skatteverket publishes lists of correctly formatted but unused SSN, that can be used for Sandbox tests. For this purpose we recommend you use an SSN that is 18 years or older. By exporting the list as an excel-file, you can sort it by age. Keep in mind that all test personal numbers may be reused, Kivra does not delete shipments in the sandbox environment. Hence the importance of not sending any sensitive data during the tests.

iOS

If you want to issue a Test Mobile BankID on your iPhone it means you can not use your private Mobile BankID on the same device. In order to get past this you can login with a test Mobile BankID on an Android phone to run the Kivra test app on iPhone.

If you have a test iPhone make sure you delete a previous version of Mobile Bank ID and install it again.

  1. Make sure you have a test phone
  2. Download the Mobile BankID app from the App Store.
  3. Settings -> BankID -> Developer and enter cavainternal.test.bankid.com

Android

Install the latest version of Mobile BankID from Google Play Store (Android) or AppGallery (Huawei). Then configure the app as follows:

  1. Make sure you have a test phone.
  2. Put the phone in airplane mode.
  3. Launch the BankID app. (Dismiss any network failure warning or similar).
  4. Click on settings.
  5. Go to "About BankID".
  6. Make a "long press" (i.e. press and hold) on the heading "Error information".
  7. Enter kundtest in the box that appears.
  8. Exit the BankID app.
  9. 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.
