Hi,

Thanks.

Will it be possible to add another textbox/input-field in this
tester-site, for the DANE-signed domain-name that will be tested, to
allow upload of a pem or crt or cer file which will be used with the
HTTPS Web-Server, or with other scheme based server ? or a textbox
to "paste" the cert or cert-chain code from such file.  So that,
test can show result info, by ruling-out that, a TLS/SSL cert or
cert-chain used by the DANE-signed site, was not present in
visitor's/client side web-browser/OS.

My understanding is, such will allow to really TEST the DANE/TLSA
"Usage" 2 and 3 cases.

If you do not have domain owner's (TLSA "Usage" case 2's or 3's)
TLS/SSL cert or cert-chain file, then will not your test-result
always fail for those TWO "Usage" cases ?

For users to test DANE+DNSSEC from their own location/computer,
mentioned in below is one (or two in long shot) option(s), out of
few other options:

If a local full DNSSEC supported DNS-Server or DNS-Resolver software
is present (for more accurate tests) in local computer or local
(trusted) LAN, or in (local) VM.

Then Mozilla Firefox, upto v24.0, (or other firefox/gecko/XUL-runner
based web-browsers, like: GNU IceCat, Iceweasel, etc), can have
partial DANE awareness, by loading the "Extended DNSSEC Validator"
("EDV", a firefox addon/extension from os3sec.org), this addon helps
to display info/icon related to DANE/TLSA "Usage" 2 & 3, but no
support for Usage 0 or 1 yet, this addon also has DNSSEC awareness
and can display info related to DNSSEC authentications, it can also
display info on SSL/TLS cert verification (and certificate chain
verification), etc.

But, EDV v0.5 (mozilla), v0.6 (github) or v0.8 (github) none worked
on Firefox v25.0 or later, last tested on Nov 5, 2013.  Based on EDV
author's response, it seems, he is not interested now, in continuing
developing anymore.

And, developer/dev-group of "DNSSEC-Validator" (another Firefox
addon, from CZ.NIC) said on mailing list, that they will add support
for DANE from next month.  Currently it supports displaying only
DNSSEC (except DANE) related info/icon.
