the nonce as a fragment. Therefore, it should be legal to make a request with no nonce for code+token. So the test tool had included the test OP-nonce-NoReq-code for both the code and code+token response types.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

ID Token "Use of the nonce Claim is REQUIRED for this flow." Therefore Roland just removed the OP-nonce-NoReq-code test from code+token, because it's testing for behavior that violates the spec. In this case while common sense may indicate that you don't
have to send a nonce for code+token, the spec says that you do.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">In a related test, the OP-nonce-NoReq-noncode is about testing that implementations reject requests without a nonce. Roland and I *<b>did not</b>* add this test for the code+token
flow because doing so would break existing implementations that have already passed certification with this functionality, which matches common sense, but not the spec. ;-) We *<b>did</b>* add this test for the code+id_token and code+id_token+token flows
because the nonce really is required for security reasons in these cases. That being said, per the rules of the test freeze, we will honor any Hybrid certifications that have already occurred without these tests having been presented by the test tool.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

it’s right for our certification tests to allow either the logical or the specified behavior in this one case.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
