= API-Compliance and Testing

One of the goals of this implementation is to provide compatability to the current version of the vault written in Go.
Therefore, a Go-client is used for testing. 

To ensure compatability, the #link("https://github.com/hashicorp/vault-client-go/blob/main/openapi.json")[OpenAPI specification] and the #link("https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault")[Vault documentation], both published by HashiCorp, are used as  references. It provides information on input parameters, types and return values.

Implemented tests are:
- Write a secret 
- Destroy specific versions of a secret
- Read a secret
- Read a metadata entry
- Write a metadata entry
