## Summary `@kbn/test-saml-auth` is a `dev-only` shared package used by FTR, Scout, Cypress, and similar tooling to obtain SAML-backed session cookies / API credentials for predefined roles against Kibana (local or Elastic Cloud). It exposes SamlSessionManager and related types (HostOptions, GetCookieOptions, Role, etc.). ### Why `@kbn/test` is the bigger FTR / test-runner harness (servers, configs, providers, etc.). SAML session handling is a narrow, reusable capability used by `@kbn/test`, `kbn/scout`, Cypress helpers, and other tooling that only need “log in as role X” without the rest of the FTR stack. Keeping SAML in `@kbn/test-saml-auth`: - Lets those consumers depend on a small, focused package instead of `@kbn/test`. - Avoids tying every SAML use case to the full test-runner dependency graph. - Keeps `SamlSessionManager` and its HTTP/auth details in one place; `@kbn/test` can stay a thin re-export for FTR ergonomics without owning the implementation. --------- Co-authored-by: kibanamachine <42973632+kibanamachine@users.noreply.github.com> (cherry picked from commit d9cdddc) # Conflicts: # packages/kbn-repo-source-classifier/src/repo_source_classifier.ts
