# Integrate & Test Applications

Integrating applications is done in a standard way for all Proxy implementations using the Cirrus Console, and thorough testing is critical to a successful implementation.

## Testing Integration Points {#testing-integration-points}




1. **Slate to Slate Proxy Connector**

   Use the test endpoint in the Cirrus Console to view released attributes.

2. **Slate Proxy Connector to Proxy**

   Use the Test Authentication link in the Proxy tenant.

3. **InCommon provider to Proxy**

   Use the Test Authentication link in the Proxy tenant.

4. **Proxy to Applications**

   Use a SAML trace (SAML) or specific service URLs (CAS) to verify attribute release.

5. **End-to-End User Test**

   Validate both authentication & authorization within an application using real user scenarios.





> [!TIP]
> Slate does not release attributes for applicants without an active admissions application. Ensure all test users have an active application in Slate; otherwise, the integration may appear to fail.
