I suggest you to do it a little differently.

Many OpenID2 implementations uses identifier_select flow.
This means, the user generally are not aware of their openid identifiers.
They just click on buttons, or at the best or worst, input something like
google.com, yahoo.com, etc.

In you test tool, if you do that, it will spit errors.

You actually needs to be a Relying Party to test OpenID 2.
