Closes #607.

This adds the toPem() cases that node-saml's test/crypto.spec.ts covers and this suite didn't, so node-saml can drop its copies once they ship here (node-saml/node-saml#409). It adds tests only and changes nothing in src/.

Every case already behaves as the issue lists, so no test here failed first. To check that the two Buffer cases really reach the PEM-or-DER decision, I removed the BOM and whitespace skip from pemText(). Only those two tests failed.

Where Added
judges the same data with and without encapsulation boundaries accepted: a pad split across a line ending, QUJDCg=\n= (base64finl). Rejected: only padding, ==; a padded line with more data after it, QUJDCg==\nQUJD
accepts what common tooling produces a Buffer holding a PEM file that opens with a UTF-8 BOM, or with blank lines; blank lines around a message; bare base64 with a trailing line ending (node-saml/node-saml#361), or with blanks and CRLF around it
rejects a value it cannot account for whole (new) data on the header's line, the footer's line, or both; a message opened and never closed, in node-saml's ReDoS shape, asserting the rejection without a timer; a header followed directly by its footer; explanatory text before, after or between messages, which toPem() refuses; the pemCertificates() side is already tested

As the issue lists, these stay in node-saml because they test its adapter: runtime type checks, option names in error messages, "is not provided", and reading a Buffer of base64 as text.

Checks

npm run build, npm test (444 passing, up from 428), and npm run lint all pass.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

node-saml hands its PEM parsing to toPem() in node-saml/node-saml#409 and
will drop its copies of these cases once they ship here. Every case
already behaves as asserted; no code changes.

Closes node-saml#607

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The test suite adds coverage for Base64 padding, PEM whitespace and line endings, BOM-prefixed buffers, invalid PEM boundaries, unclosed or empty messages, explanatory text, and certificate extraction.

Changes

PEM parsing test coverage

Layer / File(s) Summary
Base64 validation cases
test/utils-tests.spec.ts
Adds accepted and rejected cases for split padding, padding-only input, and trailing Base64 data.
PEM boundary and input handling
test/utils-tests.spec.ts
Adds cases for BOMs, blank lines, CRLF, trailing line endings, invalid boundary placement, unclosed or empty messages, explanatory text, and pemCertificates extraction.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Other

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to c611a

The new test can pass while silently dropping a certificate when explanatory text separates PEM messages. Assert both expected entries before merging.

Assert the complete certificate list.

For the “between two messages” case, not.be.empty also passes if pemCertificates() returns only the first certificate. Compare the result with both canonical Base64 entries.

The pemCertificates() side of explanatory text is already tested, and a
trailing line ending is not the tricky case an issue link is kept for.
