+
+## Workflows
+
+### PR Validation (`pr-validation.yml`)
+
+A comprehensive validation workflow that runs **all checks in parallel** for maximum speed and thorough testing.
+
+**Triggered on:**
+- Pull requests to `main` branch
+- Pushes to `main` branch
+
+**Parallel Jobs (20+ concurrent checks):**
+
+#### Code Quality
+- **Quick Checks** - Format, go vet, go mod verify
+- **golangci-lint** - Comprehensive linting
+- **Staticcheck** - Static analysis
+
+#### Security
+- **Gosec** - Security vulnerability scanning
+- **Govulncheck** - Go vulnerability database check
+- **CodeQL** - GitHub's code analysis
+
+#### Testing
+- **Race Detector** - Concurrent access bug detection
+- **Coverage** - Test coverage with 75% threshold
+- **Memory Leaks** - Goroutine and memory leak detection
+- **Integration Tests** - Full integration test suite
+- **Regression Tests** - Prevent previously fixed bugs
+- **Security Edge Cases** - Security-specific scenarios
+- **Session Tests** - Session management validation
+- **Token Tests** - Token validation scenarios
+- **CSRF Tests** - CSRF protection validation
+
+#### Provider Testing (Matrix)
+Tests run in parallel for each OIDC provider:
+- Google
+- Azure AD
+- Auth0
+- Okta
+- Keycloak
+- AWS Cognito
+- GitLab
+- GitHub
+- Generic OIDC
+
+#### Performance & Compatibility
+- **Benchmarks** - Performance regression detection
+- **Build Matrix** - linux/darwin × amd64/arm64
+- **Go Versions** - Go 1.23 and 1.24 compatibility
+
+#### Final Validation
+- **All Checks Passed** - Ensures all jobs succeeded
+
+## Workflow Features
+
+### 🚀 Parallel Execution
+All independent checks run simultaneously for fastest feedback (~5-10 minutes for full suite).
+
+### 📊 Coverage Reporting
+- Automatic PR comments with coverage statistics
+- Per-package coverage breakdown
+- 75% coverage threshold enforcement
+
+### 🔒 Security First
+- Multiple security scanners (gosec, govulncheck, CodeQL)
+- SARIF report uploads for GitHub Security tab
+- Security edge case testing
+
+### 🎯 Comprehensive Testing
+- Race condition detection
+- Memory leak detection
+- Provider-specific testing
+- Integration and regression tests
+
+### 📈 Performance Tracking
+- Benchmark results stored as artifacts
+- Performance regression detection
+
+### ✅ Quality Gates
+All checks must pass before PR can be merged:
+- Code formatting and style
+- Security vulnerabilities
+- Test coverage threshold
+- Race conditions
+- Memory leaks
+- Build success on all platforms
+
+## Local Development
+
+### Run checks locally before pushing:
+
+```bash
+# Format code
+gofmt -s -w .
+
+# Run linter
+golangci-lint run
+
+# Run tests with race detector
+go test -race -timeout=15m -count=1 ./...
+
+# Check coverage
+go test -coverprofile=coverage.out ./...
+go tool cover -func=coverage.out
+
+# Run specific test suites
+go test -v -run='.*Leak.*' ./...           # Memory leak tests
+go test -v -run='.*Integration.*' ./...    # Integration tests
+go test -v -run='.*Regression.*' ./...     # Regression tests
+
+# Run benchmarks
+go test -bench=. -benchmem ./...
+
+# Security scan
+gosec ./...
+govulncheck ./...
+```
+
+### Required Tools
+
+Install these tools for local development:
+
+```bash
+# golangci-lint
+go install github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/cmd/golangci-lint@latest
+
+# staticcheck
+go install honnef.co/go/tools/cmd/staticcheck@latest
+
+# gosec
+go install github.com/securego/gosec/v2/cmd/gosec@latest
+
+# govulncheck
+go install golang.org/x/vuln/cmd/govulncheck@latest
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Workflow Fails
+
+1. **Check job status** - Click on failed job for details
+2. **Review logs** - Expand failed steps to see error messages
+3. **Run locally** - Reproduce issue with local commands above
+4. **Check coverage** - Ensure test coverage meets 75% threshold
+
+### Coverage Below Threshold
+
+Add tests to increase coverage:
+```bash
+# See which lines aren't covered
+go test -coverprofile=coverage.out ./...
+go tool cover -html=coverage.out
+```
+
+### Race Condition Detected
+
+Run with race detector locally:
+```bash
+go test -race -v ./...
+```
+
+### Provider Test Failure
+
+Test specific provider:
+```bash
+go test -v -run='.*Azure.*' ./internal/providers/...
+```
+
+## Performance Optimization
+
+The workflow is optimized for speed:
+
+- **Parallel execution** - All independent jobs run simultaneously
+- **Go caching** - Dependencies cached between runs
+- **Strategic ordering** - Quick checks run first for fast feedback
+- **Fail-fast disabled** - Continue running all tests even if some fail
+

-# Test Execution Guide
-
-This guide explains how to run tests efficiently with the new test categorization and optimization system.
-
-## Quick Start
-
-### Fast Development Testing (Default - Target: < 30 seconds)
-```bash
-# Run quick smoke tests only
-go test ./... 
-
-# Or explicitly run in short mode
-go test ./... -short
-```
-
-### Extended Testing (Target: 2-5 minutes)
-```bash
-# Enable extended tests with more iterations and concurrency
-RUN_EXTENDED_TESTS=1 go test ./...
-
-# Or use the flag equivalent (if using test runner that supports it)
-go test ./... -extended
-```
-
-### Long-Running Performance Tests (Target: 5-15 minutes)
-```bash
-# Enable comprehensive performance and stress tests
-RUN_LONG_TESTS=1 go test ./...
-```
-
-### Full Stress Testing (Target: 10-30 minutes)
-```bash
-# Enable all stress tests with maximum parameters
-RUN_STRESS_TESTS=1 go test ./...
-```
-
-## Test Categories
-
-### 1. Quick Tests (Default)
-- **Purpose**: Fast feedback during development
-- **Duration**: < 30 seconds total
-- **Features**:
-  - Basic functionality verification
-  - Limited iterations (1-3)
-  - Small data sets
-  - Minimal concurrency
-  - Essential memory leak checks
-
-**Configuration**:
-- Max Iterations: 3
-- Max Concurrency: 5
-- Memory Threshold: 2.0 MB
-- Cache Size: 50
-- Timeout: 10 seconds
-

-## Environment Variables
-
-### Test Execution Control
-```bash
-# Enable specific test types
-export RUN_EXTENDED_TESTS=1        # Enable extended tests
-export RUN_LONG_TESTS=1           # Enable long-running tests
-export RUN_STRESS_TESTS=1         # Enable stress tests
-
-# Disable specific features
-export DISABLE_LEAK_DETECTION=1   # Skip memory leak detection
-```
-
-### Parameter Customization
-```bash
-# Customize concurrency limits
-export TEST_MAX_CONCURRENCY=10    # Override max concurrent operations
-
-# Customize iteration limits
-export TEST_MAX_ITERATIONS=50     # Override max test iterations
-
-# Customize memory thresholds
-export TEST_MEMORY_THRESHOLD_MB=25.5  # Override memory growth limit (in MB)
-```
-
-## Test-Specific Behavior
-
-### Memory Leak Tests
-- **Quick Mode**: 1-3 iterations, small data sets, strict memory limits
-- **Extended Mode**: 5-10 iterations, medium data sets, relaxed limits
-- **Long Mode**: 50-100 iterations, large data sets, performance focus
-- **Stress Mode**: 100-500 iterations, maximum data sets, stress focus
-
-### Concurrency Tests
-- **Quick Mode**: 2-5 concurrent operations, basic race detection
-- **Extended Mode**: 10-20 concurrent operations, moderate stress
-- **Long Mode**: 20-50 concurrent operations, high contention
-- **Stress Mode**: 50-100+ concurrent operations, maximum stress
-
-### Cache Tests
-- **Quick Mode**: Small caches (50 items), basic operations
-- **Extended Mode**: Medium caches (200 items), varied operations
-- **Long Mode**: Large caches (1000 items), performance testing
-- **Stress Mode**: Very large caches (2000+ items), stress testing
-
-## Integration with CI/CD
-
-### GitHub Actions Example
-```yaml
-# Quick tests for every push/PR
-- name: Quick Tests
-  run: go test ./... -short
-
-# Extended tests for main branch
-- name: Extended Tests
-  if: github.ref == 'refs/heads/main'
-  run: RUN_EXTENDED_TESTS=1 go test ./...
-
-# Nightly comprehensive testing
-- name: Nightly Stress Tests
-  if: github.event_name == 'schedule'
-  run: RUN_STRESS_TESTS=1 go test ./...
-```
-
-### Local Development Workflow
-```bash
-# During active development
-go test ./... -short
-
-# Before committing
-RUN_EXTENDED_TESTS=1 go test ./...
-
-# Before major releases
-RUN_LONG_TESTS=1 go test ./...
-
-# Performance validation
-RUN_STRESS_TESTS=1 go test ./...
-```
-
-## Performance Optimization Features
-
-### Dynamic Test Scaling
-The test system automatically adjusts parameters based on:
-- Test mode (quick/extended/long/stress)
-- Available resources
-- Environment variables
-- Previous test performance
-
-### Memory Management
-- **Garbage Collection**: Forced GC between test iterations
-- **Memory Monitoring**: Real-time memory growth tracking
-- **Leak Detection**: Goroutine and memory leak prevention
-- **Resource Cleanup**: Automatic cleanup of test resources
-
-### Timeout Management
-- **Adaptive Timeouts**: Timeouts scale with test complexity
-- **Graceful Degradation**: Tests adapt to slower environments
-- **Early Termination**: Failed tests terminate quickly
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Tests Taking Too Long
-```bash
-# Check if running in extended mode accidentally
-echo $RUN_EXTENDED_TESTS $RUN_LONG_TESTS
-
-# Force quick mode
-unset RUN_EXTENDED_TESTS RUN_LONG_TESTS RUN_STRESS_TESTS
-go test ./... -short
-```
-
-### Memory Issues
-```bash
-# Reduce memory limits for constrained environments
-export TEST_MEMORY_THRESHOLD_MB=5.0
-export TEST_MAX_CONCURRENCY=2
-go test ./...
-```
-
-### Concurrency Issues
-```bash
-# Reduce concurrency for slower systems
-export TEST_MAX_CONCURRENCY=5
-export TEST_MAX_ITERATIONS=10
-go test ./...
-```
-
-### Skip Specific Test Types
-```bash
-# Skip memory leak detection if problematic
-export DISABLE_LEAK_DETECTION=1
-go test ./...
-```
-
-## Benchmarking
-
-### Running Benchmarks
-```bash
-# Quick benchmarks
-go test -bench=. -short
-
-# Extended benchmarks
-RUN_EXTENDED_TESTS=1 go test -bench=.
-
-# Memory profiling
-go test -bench=. -memprofile=mem.prof
-go tool pprof mem.prof
-```
-
-### Benchmark Categories
-- **Basic Operations**: Set/Get performance
-- **Concurrency**: Multi-threaded performance
-- **Memory**: Allocation and cleanup performance
-- **Cache**: Eviction and cleanup performance
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### For Developers
-1. Always run quick tests during development (`go test ./... -short`)
-2. Run extended tests before committing (`RUN_EXTENDED_TESTS=1 go test ./...`)
-3. Use appropriate test categories for your use case
-4. Monitor test execution time and adjust if needed
-
-### For CI/CD
-1. Use quick tests for fast feedback on PRs
-2. Use extended tests for main branch validation
-3. Use long tests for release validation
-4. Use stress tests for nightly/weekly validation
-
-### For Performance Testing
-1. Use consistent environment variables
-2. Run tests multiple times for statistical significance
-3. Monitor both execution time and resource usage
-4. Use profiling tools for detailed analysis
-
-## Examples
-
-### Daily Development
-```bash
-# Fast tests while coding
-go test ./... -short
-
-# Before git commit
-RUN_EXTENDED_TESTS=1 go test ./...
-```
-
-### Release Testing
-```bash
-# Comprehensive validation
-RUN_LONG_TESTS=1 go test ./...
-
-# Stress testing
-RUN_STRESS_TESTS=1 go test ./...
-```
-
-### Custom Configuration
-```bash
-# Custom limits for specific environment
-export TEST_MAX_CONCURRENCY=8
-export TEST_MAX_ITERATIONS=25
-export TEST_MEMORY_THRESHOLD_MB=15.0
-RUN_EXTENDED_TESTS=1 go test ./...
-```

+# Auth0 Audience Validation Guide
+
+## Overview
+
+This guide explains how to configure audience validation for Auth0 and other OIDC providers that support custom API audiences. It covers three common Auth0 scenarios and how to configure the middleware for maximum security.
+
+## Table of Contents
+
+1. [Understanding Audiences](#understanding-audiences)
+2. [The Three Auth0 Scenarios](#the-three-auth0-scenarios)
+3. [Configuration Options](#configuration-options)
+4. [Security Recommendations](#security-recommendations)
+5. [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting)
+
+---
+
+## Understanding Audiences
+
+### What is an Audience?
+
+The **audience** (`aud`) claim in a JWT identifies the intended recipient of the token. Per OAuth 2.0 and OIDC specifications:
+
+- **ID Tokens**: MUST have `aud = client_id` (per OIDC Core 1.0 spec)
+- **Access Tokens**: Can have custom audiences (e.g., API identifiers)
+
+### Why Does This Matter?
+
+Proper audience validation prevents **token confusion attacks** where a token intended for one API is used to access another API.
+
+---
+
+## The Three Auth0 Scenarios
+
+### Scenario 1: Custom API Audience ✅ **RECOMMENDED**
+
+**Configuration:**
+```yaml
+audience: "https://my-api.example.com"  # Your API identifier from Auth0
+```
+
+**What Happens:**
+1. Authorization request includes `audience` parameter
+2. Auth0 issues:
+   - **ID Token**: `aud = client_id`
+   - **Access Token**: `aud = ["https://issuer/userinfo", "https://my-api.example.com"]`
+3. Middleware validates:
+   - ID tokens against `client_id`
+   - Access tokens against custom audience
+
+**Result:** ✅ Fully secure, OIDC compliant
+
+---
+
+### Scenario 2: Default Audience (No Custom API) ⚠️ **USE WITH CAUTION**
+
+**Configuration:**
+```yaml
+# audience not specified (defaults to client_id)
+```
+
+**What Happens:**
+1. Authorization request WITHOUT `audience` parameter
+2. Auth0 issues:
+   - **ID Token**: `aud = client_id`
+   - **Access Token**: `aud = ["https://issuer/userinfo", "default_api"]` (no `client_id`)
+3. Access token validation fails (audience mismatch)
+4. Middleware falls back to ID token validation
+
+**Security Warning:**
+```
+⚠️⚠️⚠️  SECURITY WARNING: Falling back to ID token validation despite access token audience mismatch!
+⚠️  This could allow tokens intended for different APIs to grant access
+⚠️  Set strictAudienceValidation=true to enforce proper audience validation
+⚠️  See: https://github.com/lukaszraczylo/traefikoidc/issues/74
+```
+
+**Recommended Fix:**
+```yaml
+strictAudienceValidation: true  # Reject sessions with audience mismatch
+```
+
+**Result:**
+- Default: ⚠️ Works but logs security warnings
+- With strict mode: ✅ Secure (rejects mismatched tokens)
+
+---
+
+### Scenario 3: Opaque Access Tokens ✅ **SUPPORTED**
+
+**Configuration:**
+```yaml
+allowOpaqueTokens: true              # Enable opaque token support
+requireTokenIntrospection: true      # Require introspection (recommended)
+```
+
+**What Happens:**
+1. Auth0 issues opaque (non-JWT) access token
+2. Middleware detects opaque token (not 3 parts separated by dots)
+3. Uses OAuth 2.0 Token Introspection (RFC 7662) to validate
+4. Falls back to ID token if introspection unavailable (unless `requireTokenIntrospection=true`)
+
+**Requirements:**
+- Provider must support `introspection_endpoint` in OIDC discovery
+- Client must have introspection permissions
+
+**Result:** ✅ Secure with introspection, ⚠️ risky without
+
+---
+
+## Configuration Options
+
+### Audience Settings
+
+| Option | Type | Default | Description |
+|--------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `audience` | string | `client_id` | Expected audience for access tokens |
+
+**Example:**
+```yaml
+# .traefik.yml
+http:
+  middlewares:
+    oidc-auth:
+      plugin:
+        traefikoidc:
+          audience: "https://my-api.example.com"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Security Mode Settings
+
+#### `strictAudienceValidation`
+
+**Type:** boolean
+**Default:** `false`
+**Recommended:** `true` for production
+
+**What it does:**
+- When `true`: Rejects sessions if access token audience doesn't match (prevents Scenario 2)
+- When `false`: Logs warnings but allows fallback to ID token (backward compatible)
+
+**Example:**
+```yaml
+strictAudienceValidation: true
+```
+
+**When to use:**
+- ✅ Always use in production environments
+- ✅ When you have custom API audiences configured in Auth0
+- ⚠️ May break existing deployments relying on Scenario 2 behavior
+
+---
+
+#### `allowOpaqueTokens`
+
+**Type:** boolean
+**Default:** `false`
+
+**What it does:**
+- When `true`: Accepts opaque (non-JWT) access tokens
+- When `false`: Only accepts JWT access tokens
+
+**Example:**
+```yaml
+allowOpaqueTokens: true
+```
+
+**When to use:**
+- ✅ When Auth0 issues opaque tokens (no default API configured)
+- ✅ When using Auth0 Management API tokens
+- ⚠️ Requires introspection endpoint for security
+
+---
+
+#### `requireTokenIntrospection`
+
+**Type:** boolean
+**Default:** `false`
+**Recommended:** `true` when `allowOpaqueTokens=true`
+
+**What it does:**
+- When `true`: Rejects opaque tokens if introspection fails or endpoint unavailable
+- When `false`: Falls back to ID token validation for opaque tokens
+
+**Example:**
+```yaml
+allowOpaqueTokens: true
+requireTokenIntrospection: true
+```
+
+**When to use:**
+- ✅ Always use when `allowOpaqueTokens=true` for maximum security
+- ⚠️ Requires provider to expose introspection endpoint
+
+---
+
+## Security Recommendations
+
+### Recommended Configuration for Auth0
+
+**For APIs with custom audiences (Scenario 1):**
+```yaml
+audience: "https://my-api.example.com"
+strictAudienceValidation: true
+allowOpaqueTokens: false
+```
+
+**For default Auth0 setup (Scenario 2):**
+```yaml
+# Don't set audience (defaults to client_id)
+strictAudienceValidation: true  # Enforce proper configuration
+```
+
+**For opaque tokens (Scenario 3):**
+```yaml
+allowOpaqueTokens: true
+requireTokenIntrospection: true
+strictAudienceValidation: true
+```
+
+### Security Best Practices
+
+1. ✅ **Always set `strictAudienceValidation: true` in production**
+2. ✅ **Configure custom API audiences in Auth0 dashboard**
+3. ✅ **Use `requireTokenIntrospection: true` if accepting opaque tokens**
+4. ✅ **Monitor logs for security warnings**
+5. ❌ **Don't rely on Scenario 2 fallback behavior**
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "Access token validation failed due to audience mismatch"
+
+**Symptom:**
+```
+⚠️  SCENARIO 2 DETECTED: Access token validation failed due to audience mismatch
+```
+
+**Cause:** Access token audience doesn't match configured audience
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. **Configure correct audience:**
+   ```yaml
+   audience: "https://your-api-identifier"  # From Auth0 API settings
+   ```
+
+2. **Update Auth0 authorization request:**
+   - Ensure `audience` parameter is included in authorize URL
+   - Middleware automatically adds this when `audience != client_id`
+
+3. **Accept the behavior (not recommended):**
+   ```yaml
+   strictAudienceValidation: false  # Logs warnings but allows
+   ```
+
+---
+
+### "Opaque token detected but allowOpaqueTokens=false"
+
+**Symptom:**
+```
+⚠️  Opaque access token detected but allowOpaqueTokens=false
+```
+
+**Cause:** Auth0 issued non-JWT access token but middleware not configured to accept them
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. **Enable opaque tokens:**
+   ```yaml
+   allowOpaqueTokens: true
+   requireTokenIntrospection: true
+   ```
+
+2. **Configure Auth0 to issue JWT access tokens:**
+   - Create an API in Auth0 dashboard
+   - Set API identifier as `audience` in configuration
+
+---
+
+### "Introspection endpoint not available"
+
+**Symptom:**
+```
+⚠️  Opaque tokens enabled but no introspection endpoint available from provider
+```
+
+**Cause:** Auth0 provider metadata doesn't include `introspection_endpoint`
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. **Check provider discovery:**
+   ```bash
+   curl https://YOUR_DOMAIN/.well-known/openid-configuration
+   ```
+   Look for `introspection_endpoint`
+
+2. **Disable required introspection (less secure):**
+   ```yaml
+   allowOpaqueTokens: true
+   requireTokenIntrospection: false  # Falls back to ID token
+   ```
+
+3. **Use JWT access tokens instead** (recommended)
+
+---
+
+### "Token introspection required but endpoint not available"
+
+**Symptom:**
+```
+❌ SECURITY: Opaque token rejected (introspection required but failed)
+```
+
+**Cause:** `requireTokenIntrospection=true` but provider doesn't support it
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. **Disable required introspection:**
+   ```yaml
+   requireTokenIntrospection: false
+   ```
+
+2. **Configure Auth0 to issue JWT tokens** (better solution)
+
+---
+
+## Advanced Topics
+
+### Token Type Detection
+
+The middleware uses a sophisticated 6-step detection algorithm:
+
+1. **RFC 9068 `typ` header**: `at+jwt` → Access Token
+2. **Explicit type claims**: `token_use`, `token_type`
+3. **`scope` claim**: Present → Access Token
+4. **`nonce` claim**: Present → ID Token (OIDC spec)
+5. **Audience check**: `aud == client_id` only → ID Token
+6. **Default**: Access Token
+
+### OAuth 2.0 Token Introspection (RFC 7662)
+
+When opaque tokens are detected:
+
+1. Middleware calls provider's `introspection_endpoint`
+2. Authenticates using client credentials
+3. Receives response with `active` status and claims
+4. Caches result for 5 minutes (configurable via TTL)
+5. Validates expiration, not-before, and audience if present
+
+**Cache behavior:**
+- Cache key: Token hash
+- TTL: 5 minutes or token expiry (whichever is shorter)
+- Reduces introspection requests for frequently used tokens
+

+
+## Migration Guide
+
+### From Previous Versions
+
+**If you're upgrading from a version without these features:**
+
+1. **No action required for default behavior** - backward compatible
+2. **Recommended: Enable strict mode gradually**
+   ```yaml
+   # Step 1: Enable and monitor logs
+   strictAudienceValidation: false  # Default
+
+   # Step 2: After confirming no warnings, enable
+   strictAudienceValidation: true
+   ```
+
+3. **For opaque tokens: Enable explicitly**
+   ```yaml
+   allowOpaqueTokens: true
+   requireTokenIntrospection: true
+   ```
+
+### Testing Your Configuration
+
+1. **Check logs for warnings:**
+   ```bash
+   # Look for Scenario 2 warnings
+   grep "SCENARIO 2 DETECTED" /var/log/traefik.log
+
+   # Look for opaque token warnings
+   grep "Opaque" /var/log/traefik.log
+   ```
+
+2. **Test with curl:**
+   ```bash
+   # Get token from Auth0
+   ACCESS_TOKEN="your_access_token"
+
+   # Test request
+   curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $ACCESS_TOKEN" \
+        https://your-app.example.com/api
+   ```
+
+3. **Monitor for security warnings in production logs**

+```
+
+### Multiple Middleware Instances
+
+When running multiple middleware instances with different authorization requirements, use unique prefixes:
+
+```yaml
+# User authentication middleware
+---
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware
+metadata:
+  name: oidc-userauth
+spec:
+  plugin:
+    traefikoidc:
+      cookiePrefix: "_oidc_userauth_"
+      sessionEncryptionKey: user-encryption-key-min-32-bytes
+      # ... other config
+---
+# Admin authentication middleware
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware
+metadata:
+  name: oidc-adminauth
+spec:
+  plugin:
+    traefikoidc:
+      cookiePrefix: "_oidc_adminauth_"
+      sessionEncryptionKey: admin-encryption-key-min-32-bytes
+      allowedUsers:
+        - admin@example.com
+      # ... other config
+```
+
+### Extended Session Duration
+
+```yaml
+sessionMaxAge: 604800  # 7 days
+# Common values:
+# 3600     - 1 hour (high security)
+# 86400    - 1 day (default)
+# 259200   - 3 days
+# 604800   - 7 days
+# 2592000  - 30 days
+```
+
+---
+
+## Access Control
+
+### User Restrictions
+
+| Parameter | Type | Description |
+|-----------|------|-------------|
+| `allowedUserDomains` | []string | Restrict to specific email domains |
+| `allowedUsers` | []string | Specific email addresses allowed |
+| `allowedRolesAndGroups` | []string | Required roles or groups |
+| `roleClaimName` | string | JWT claim for roles (default: `roles`) |
+| `groupClaimName` | string | JWT claim for groups (default: `groups`) |
+| `userIdentifierClaim` | string | Claim for user ID (default: `email`) |
+
+### Domain Restriction
+
+```yaml
+allowedUserDomains:
+  - company.com
+  - subsidiary.com
+```
+
+### Specific User Access
+
+```yaml
+allowedUsers:
+  - user@example.com
+  - contractor@external.org
+```
+
+### Role-Based Access Control
+
+```yaml
+allowedRolesAndGroups:
+  - admin
+  - developer
+roleClaimName: "https://myapp.com/roles"  # For namespaced claims (Auth0)
+```
+
+### Access Control Logic
+
+- If only `allowedUsers` is set: Only specified emails can access
+- If only `allowedUserDomains` is set: Only specified domains can access
+- If both are set: Access granted if email is in `allowedUsers` OR domain is in `allowedUserDomains`
+- If neither is set: Any authenticated user can access
+
+### Users Without Email (Azure AD)
+
+For Azure AD service accounts or users without email:
+
+```yaml
+userIdentifierClaim: sub  # Options: sub, oid, upn, preferred_username
+allowedUsers:
+  - "abc12345-6789-0abc-def0-123456789abc"  # User object ID
+```
+
+---
+
+## Headers Configuration
+
+### Default Headers
+
+The middleware sets these headers for downstream services:
+
+| Header | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `X-Forwarded-User` | User's email address |
+| `X-User-Groups` | Comma-separated user groups |
+| `X-User-Roles` | Comma-separated user roles |
+| `X-Auth-Request-Redirect` | Original request URI |
+| `X-Auth-Request-User` | User's email address |
+| `X-Auth-Request-Token` | User's ID token |
+
+### Minimal Headers Mode
+
+For "431 Request Header Fields Too Large" errors:
+
+```yaml
+minimalHeaders: true  # Only forwards X-Forwarded-User
+```
+
+### Custom Templated Headers
+
+```yaml
+headers:
+  - name: "X-User-Email"
+    value: "{{{{.Claims.email}}}}"
+  - name: "X-User-ID"
+    value: "{{{{.Claims.sub}}}}"
+  - name: "Authorization"
+    value: "Bearer {{{{.AccessToken}}}}"
+  - name: "X-User-Roles"
+    value: "{{{{range $i, $e := .Claims.roles}}}}{{{{if $i}}}},{{{{end}}}}{{{{$e}}}}{{{{end}}}}"
+```
+
+**Template Variables:**
+- `{{.Claims.field}}` - ID token claims
+- `{{.AccessToken}}` - Raw access token
+- `{{.IdToken}}` - Raw ID token
+- `{{.RefreshToken}}` - Raw refresh token
+
+**Important:** Use double curly braces (`{{{{` and `}}}}`) to escape templates in YAML.

+## Security Headers
+
+### Security Profiles
+
+| Profile | Use Case | Security Level |
+|---------|----------|----------------|
+| `default` | Standard web apps | High |
+| `strict` | Maximum security | Very High |
+| `development` | Local development | Medium |
+| `api` | API endpoints | High |
+| `custom` | Custom requirements | Configurable |
+
+### Basic Configuration
+
+```yaml
+securityHeaders:
+  enabled: true
+  profile: "default"
+```
+
+### API with CORS
+
+```yaml
+securityHeaders:
+  enabled: true
+  profile: "api"
+  corsEnabled: true
+  corsAllowedOrigins:
+    - "https://your-frontend.com"
+    - "https://*.example.com"
+  corsAllowCredentials: true
+```
+
+### Custom Security Configuration
+
+```yaml
+securityHeaders:
+  enabled: true
+  profile: "custom"
+
+  # Content Security Policy
+  contentSecurityPolicy: "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self'"
+
+  # HSTS
+  strictTransportSecurity: true
+  strictTransportSecurityMaxAge: 31536000
+  strictTransportSecuritySubdomains: true
+  strictTransportSecurityPreload: true
+
+  # Frame and Content Protection
+  frameOptions: "DENY"
+  contentTypeOptions: "nosniff"
+  xssProtection: "1; mode=block"
+  referrerPolicy: "strict-origin-when-cross-origin"
+
+  # CORS
+  corsEnabled: true
+  corsAllowedOrigins: ["https://app.example.com"]
+  corsAllowedMethods: ["GET", "POST", "PUT", "DELETE", "OPTIONS"]
+  corsAllowedHeaders: ["Authorization", "Content-Type"]
+  corsAllowCredentials: true
+  corsMaxAge: 86400
+
+  # Custom Headers
+  customHeaders:
+    X-Custom-Header: "value"
+
+  # Server Identification
+  disableServerHeader: true
+  disablePoweredByHeader: true
+```
+
+### CORS Origin Patterns
+
+```yaml
+corsAllowedOrigins:
+  - "https://example.com"        # Exact match
+  - "https://*.example.com"      # Subdomain wildcard
+  - "http://localhost:*"         # Port wildcard (development)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Scope Configuration
+
+### Default Behavior (Append Mode)
+
+```yaml
+scopes:
+  - roles
+  - custom_scope
+# Result: ["openid", "profile", "email", "roles", "custom_scope"]
+```
+
+### Override Mode
+
+```yaml
+overrideScopes: true
+scopes:
+  - openid
+  - profile
+  - custom_scope
+# Result: ["openid", "profile", "custom_scope"]
+```
+
+---
+
+## Advanced Options
+
+### Dynamic Client Registration (RFC 7591)
+
+```yaml
+dynamicClientRegistration:
+  enabled: true
+  initialAccessToken: "your-token"  # Optional
+  persistCredentials: true
+  credentialsFile: "/tmp/oidc-credentials.json"
+  clientMetadata:
+    redirect_uris:
+      - "https://your-app.com/oauth2/callback"
+    client_name: "My Application"
+    application_type: "web"
+    grant_types:
+      - "authorization_code"
+      - "refresh_token"
+```
+
+### Multi-Replica Deployment
+
+Without Redis, disable replay detection:
+
+```yaml
+disableReplayDetection: true
+```
+
+With Redis (recommended):
+
+```yaml
+redis:
+  enabled: true
+  address: "redis:6379"
+  cacheMode: "hybrid"
+```
+
+See [REDIS.md](REDIS.md) for complete Redis configuration.
+
+---
+
+## Kubernetes Secrets
+
+Reference secrets instead of hardcoding sensitive values:
+
+```yaml
+providerURL: urn:k8s:secret:oidc-secret:ISSUER
+clientID: urn:k8s:secret:oidc-secret:CLIENT_ID
+clientSecret: urn:k8s:secret:oidc-secret:SECRET
+```
+
+Create the secret:
+
+```bash
+kubectl create secret generic oidc-secret \
+  --from-literal=ISSUER=https://accounts.google.com \
+  --from-literal=CLIENT_ID=your-client-id \
+  --from-literal=SECRET=your-client-secret \
+  -n traefik
+```
+
+---
+
+## Environment Variable Naming
+
+**Important:** Avoid using "API" as a substring in environment variable names when using `${VAR}` syntax in Traefik configuration. Traefik reserves `TRAEFIK_API_*` variables and the substring may cause conflicts.
+
+```yaml
+# Bad - may cause issues
+sessionEncryptionKey: ${OIDC_SECRET_API}
+
+# Good
+sessionEncryptionKey: ${OIDC_SECRET_SVC}
+```

+
+```bash
+127.0.0.1 hello.localhost
+127.0.0.1 traefik.localhost
+```
+
+#### 2. Plugin Configuration
+
+The plugin is loaded using Traefik's **local plugins mode**:
+
+- Plugin source: Parent directory (`../`)
+- Mount path: `/plugins-local/src/github.com/lukaszraczylo/traefikoidc`
+- Configuration: `experimental.localPlugins` in `traefik.yml`
+
+#### 3. OIDC Provider Setup
+
+Edit `docker/dynamic.yml` with your provider details:
+
+**Google:**
+```yaml
+http:
+  middlewares:
+    oidc-auth:
+      plugin:
+        traefikoidc:
+          providerURL: "https://accounts.google.com"
+          clientID: "your-client-id.apps.googleusercontent.com"
+          clientSecret: "your-google-client-secret"
+          sessionEncryptionKey: "your-32-character-encryption-key"
+          callbackURL: "/oauth2/callback"
+          logoutURL: "/oauth2/logout"
+          scopes:
+            - "openid"
+            - "email"
+            - "profile"
+```
+
+**Azure AD:**
+```yaml
+http:
+  middlewares:
+    oidc-auth:
+      plugin:
+        traefikoidc:
+          providerURL: "https://login.microsoftonline.com/your-tenant-id/v2.0"
+          clientID: "your-azure-client-id"
+          clientSecret: "your-azure-client-secret"
+          sessionEncryptionKey: "your-32-character-encryption-key"
+          callbackURL: "/oauth2/callback"
+          scopes:
+            - "openid"
+            - "email"
+            - "profile"
+```
+
+#### 4. Start Environment

+## GitHub
+
+### Provider URL
+
+```yaml

+
+### Configuration
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware
+metadata:
+  name: oauth-github
+spec:
+  plugin:
+    traefikoidc:

+      forceHttps: true
+```
+
+### Limitations
+
+- **OAuth 2.0 only** - Not OpenID Connect
+- **No ID tokens** - Only access tokens for API calls
+- **No refresh tokens** - Users must re-authenticate on expiry
+- **No standard claims** - User info requires API calls
+
+Use GitHub only for API access, not for user authentication with claims.
+
+### GitHub Setup
+
+1. Go to GitHub Settings > Developer settings > OAuth Apps
+2. Create new OAuth App
+3. Set Authorization callback URL: `https://your-domain.com/oauth2/callback`
+4. Note Client ID and generate Client Secret
+

+
+## Generic OIDC
+
+For any OIDC-compliant provider not listed above.
+
+### Configuration
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware
+metadata:
+  name: oidc-generic
+spec:
+  plugin:
+    traefikoidc:
+      providerURL: "https://oidc.your-provider.com"
+      clientID: "your-client-id"
+      clientSecret: "your-client-secret"
+      callbackURL: "/oauth2/callback"
+      sessionEncryptionKey: "your-32-char-encryption-key-here"
+      scopes:
+        - openid
+        - profile
+        - email
+      forceHttps: true
+      enablePkce: true
+```
+
+### Requirements
+
+- Provider must expose `.well-known/openid-configuration` endpoint
+- Must support authorization code flow
+- ID tokens must contain required claims (email, sub, etc.)
+
+---
+
+## Automatic Scope Filtering
+
+The middleware automatically filters OAuth scopes based on the provider's declared capabilities.
+
+### How It Works
+
+1. Fetches provider's `.well-known/openid-configuration`
+2. Extracts `scopes_supported` field
+3. Filters requested scopes to only include supported ones
+4. Falls back to all requested scopes if provider doesn't declare supported scopes
+
+### Example: Self-Hosted GitLab
+
+Self-hosted GitLab may reject `offline_access` scope:
+
+```yaml
+scopes:
+  - openid
+  - profile
+  - email
+  - offline_access  # Will be automatically filtered out if unsupported
+```
+
+The middleware will:
+1. Read GitLab's discovery document
+2. Detect `offline_access` is NOT in `scopes_supported`
+3. Filter it out automatically
+4. Authentication succeeds
+
+### Logging
+
+```
+INFO: ScopeFilter: Filtered unsupported scopes: [offline_access]
+DEBUG: ScopeFilter: Final filtered scopes: [openid profile email]
+```
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+If a provider rejects scopes even after filtering:
+1. Check the provider's discovery document: `curl https://provider/.well-known/openid-configuration`
+2. Use `overrideScopes: true` with only supported scopes
+3. Review middleware debug logs for filtering decisions

+
+## Overview
+
+The Redis cache feature provides distributed caching for the Traefik OIDC plugin, enabling seamless operation across multiple Traefik instances.
+
+### Key Features
+
+- **Distributed JTI Replay Detection**: Prevents token replay attacks across all instances
+- **Shared Session Management**: Consistent user sessions across replicas
+- **Circuit Breaker**: Automatic fallback to memory cache during Redis outages
+- **Health Checking**: Continuous monitoring of Redis connectivity
+- **Flexible Cache Modes**: Memory, Redis, or hybrid caching strategies
+- **Pure-Go Implementation**: Yaegi-compatible, works with dynamic plugin loading
+
+### Architecture

+
+## Why Use Redis Cache?
+
+### The Problem
+
+When running multiple Traefik instances without shared cache:
+
+1. **False Positive Replay Detection**
+   - User authenticates → Token stored in Instance A's JTI cache
+   - Next request → Load balancer routes to Instance B
+   - Instance B doesn't have the JTI → Falsely detects replay attack
+
+2. **Session Inconsistency**
+   - User session created on Instance A
+   - Subsequent request routed to Instance B
+   - Instance B has no knowledge of the session
+
+3. **Token Metadata Fragmentation**
+   - Token refresh happens on Instance A
+   - Other instances continue using old tokens
+
+### The Solution
+
+Redis provides centralized cache that all instances share, ensuring:
+
+- **Consistent Authentication**: All instances share authentication state
+- **True Replay Detection**: JTI cache shared across all instances
+- **Seamless Scaling**: Add/remove instances without affecting sessions
+- **High Availability**: Circuit breaker with automatic fallback
+

+
+## Configuration
+
+### Basic Configuration
+
+```yaml
+redis:
+  enabled: true
+  address: "redis:6379"
+  password: "your-password"  # Optional
+  db: 0
+  keyPrefix: "traefikoidc:"
+  cacheMode: "hybrid"
+```
+
+### All Configuration Options

+
+### Environment Variables (Fallback)
+
+If not configured through Traefik, these environment variables are used:
+
+```bash
+REDIS_ENABLED=true
+REDIS_ADDRESS=redis:6379
+REDIS_PASSWORD=your-password
+REDIS_DB=0
+REDIS_KEY_PREFIX=traefikoidc:
+REDIS_CACHE_MODE=hybrid
+REDIS_POOL_SIZE=10
+REDIS_CONNECT_TIMEOUT=5
+REDIS_READ_TIMEOUT=3
+REDIS_WRITE_TIMEOUT=3
+REDIS_ENABLE_TLS=false
+REDIS_TLS_SKIP_VERIFY=false
+```
+
+---
+
+## Cache Modes
+
+### Memory Mode (Default without Redis)
+
+```yaml
+redis:
+  cacheMode: "memory"
+```
+
+- Uses only in-memory cache
+- Suitable for single-instance deployments
+- No Redis dependency
+- Fastest performance
+
+### Redis Mode
+
+```yaml
+redis:
+  enabled: true
+  address: "redis:6379"
+  cacheMode: "redis"
+```
+
+- All operations go directly to Redis
+- Ensures consistency across replicas
+- Slightly higher latency
+
+### Hybrid Mode (Recommended)
+
+```yaml
+redis:
+  enabled: true
+  address: "redis:6379"
+  cacheMode: "hybrid"
+```
+
+Two-tier caching strategy:
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│            Client Request               │
+└────────────────┬────────────────────────┘
+                 ▼
+        ┌────────────────┐
+        │  Local Cache   │ ← L1 Cache (Fast)
+        │   (Memory)     │
+        └────────┬───────┘
+                 │ Miss
+                 ▼
+        ┌────────────────┐
+        │  Remote Cache  │ ← L2 Cache (Shared)
+        │    (Redis)     │
+        └────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Read Path:**
+1. Check local memory cache (L1)
+2. On miss, check Redis (L2)
+3. On hit in Redis, populate L1
+4. Return value
+
+**Write Path:**
+1. Write to Redis (L2) for durability
+2. Write to local cache (L1) for speed
+
+### Performance Comparison
+
+| Operation | Memory Mode | Redis Mode | Hybrid Mode |
+|-----------|------------|------------|-------------|
+| Read (p50) | 0.1ms | 2ms | 0.2ms |
+| Read (p99) | 0.5ms | 10ms | 5ms |
+| Write (p50) | 0.2ms | 3ms | 3ms |
+| Throughput | 100k/s | 20k/s | 80k/s |

+
+### Kubernetes
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
+kind: Middleware
+metadata:
+  name: oidc-with-redis
+spec:
+  plugin:
+    traefikoidc:
+      providerURL: https://accounts.google.com
+      clientID: your-client-id
+      clientSecret: your-client-secret
+      sessionEncryptionKey: your-encryption-key
+      callbackURL: /oauth2/callback
+      redis:
+        enabled: true
+        address: "redis-service.redis-namespace:6379"
+        password: "urn:k8s:secret:redis-secret:password"
+        db: 0
+        keyPrefix: "traefikoidc:"
+        cacheMode: "hybrid"
+        poolSize: 20
+        enableCircuitBreaker: true
+        circuitBreakerThreshold: 5
+```
+
+### AWS ElastiCache
+
+```yaml
+redis:
+  enabled: true
+  address: "your-cache.abc123.cache.amazonaws.com:6379"
+  cacheMode: "hybrid"
+  enableTLS: true
+  password: "your-elasticache-auth-token"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Performance Tuning
+
+### Connection Pool Sizing
+
+```yaml
+redis:
+  poolSize: 20        # Formula: 2 * CPU cores * replicas
+  # For 4 cores, 3 replicas: poolSize = 24
+```
+
+### TTL Strategy
+
+The plugin automatically sets TTLs based on token lifetimes:
+
+- **JTI Cache**: Matches token lifetime (typically 1 hour)
+- **Session**: Matches `sessionMaxAge` configuration
+- **Token Metadata**: 5 minutes (short-lived)
+
+### Redis Server Configuration
+
+```bash
+# Recommended Redis settings for cache
+maxmemory 512mb
+maxmemory-policy allkeys-lru  # Evict least recently used
+
+# For cache data, disable persistence for better performance
+save ""
+appendonly no
+```
+
+### Hybrid Mode Tuning
+
+```yaml
+redis:
+  cacheMode: "hybrid"
+  hybridL1Size: 500      # Max items in local cache
+  hybridL1MemoryMB: 10   # Max memory for local cache
+```
+
+---
+
+## Monitoring
+
+### Key Metrics
+
+- **Cache hit rate** (target: >90% for hybrid mode)
+- **Redis latency** (target: <10ms p99)
+- **Circuit breaker state**
+- **Connection pool utilization
+
+### Redis Commands for Monitoring
+
+```bash
+# Monitor commands in real-time
+redis-cli MONITOR
+
+# Check slow queries
+redis-cli SLOWLOG GET 10
+
+# Memory usage
+redis-cli INFO memory
+
+# Key statistics
+redis-cli DBSIZE
+
+# List keys with prefix
+redis-cli --scan --pattern "traefikoidc:*"
+
+# Check key TTL
+redis-cli TTL "traefikoidc:session:abc123"
+```
+
+### Health Check Endpoint
+
+The plugin provides health information including:
+
+```json
+{
+  "status": "healthy",
+  "cache": {
+    "mode": "hybrid",
+    "redis": {
+      "connected": true,
+      "latency": "2ms"
+    },
+    "circuit_breaker": {
+      "state": "closed",
+      "failures": 0
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Connection Refused
+
+**Symptoms:** `dial tcp: connection refused`
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Verify Redis is running: `redis-cli ping`
+2. Check network connectivity: `telnet redis-host 6379`
+3. Verify address configuration
+
+### Authentication Failure
+
+**Symptoms:** `NOAUTH Authentication required`
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Set Redis password in configuration
+2. Verify password is correct
+
+### Circuit Breaker Open
+
+**Symptoms:** `Circuit breaker is open`, falling back to memory
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Check Redis health: `redis-cli INFO server`
+2. Review network latency: `redis-cli --latency`
+3. Adjust circuit breaker thresholds if needed
+
+### High Memory Usage
+
+**Symptoms:** Redis memory constantly growing, OOM errors
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Configure eviction policy:
+   ```bash
+   CONFIG SET maxmemory 512mb
+   CONFIG SET maxmemory-policy allkeys-lru
+   ```
+2. Review key count: `redis-cli DBSIZE`
+3. Check for large keys: `redis-cli --bigkeys`
+
+### Inconsistent Cache State
+
+**Symptoms:** Different responses from different replicas
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Verify all instances use the same Redis address
+2. Check cache mode consistency across instances
+3. Verify time synchronization on all hosts
+
+---
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+### From Memory-Only to Redis
+
+#### Phase 1: Preparation
+
+1. Deploy Redis infrastructure
+2. Test Redis connectivity
+3. Configure monitoring
+
+#### Phase 2: Gradual Rollout
+
+1. Enable Redis on one instance:
+   ```yaml
+   redis:
+     enabled: true
+     address: "redis:6379"
+     cacheMode: "hybrid"
+   ```
+2. Monitor for errors
+3. Gradually enable on more instances
+
+#### Phase 3: Full Migration
+
+1. Enable Redis on all instances
+2. Remove `disableReplayDetection: true` if set
+3. Monitor for issues
+
+### Rollback Plan
+
+If issues occur:
+1. Set `redis.enabled: false`
+2. Plugin falls back to memory cache automatically
+3. Investigate and resolve issues
+

+
+## FAQ
+
+### Is Redis required?
+
+No, Redis is optional. The plugin works with in-memory cache for single-instance deployments.
+
+### What happens if Redis goes down?
+
+The circuit breaker opens after threshold failures, and the plugin falls back to in-memory cache. It periodically attempts to reconnect.
+
+### Which cache mode should I use?
+
+For production multi-replica deployments, use `hybrid` mode for best performance and consistency.
+
+### How much memory does Redis need?
+
+Depends on active sessions and token sizes:
+- Small (1-1000 users): 128MB
+- Medium (1000-10000 users): 256-512MB
+- Large (10000+ users): 1GB+
+
+### Can I use managed Redis services?
+
+Yes, the plugin works with AWS ElastiCache, Azure Cache for Redis, Google Cloud Memorystore, and Redis Enterprise Cloud.
+
+### Is data encrypted in Redis?
+
+Session data is encrypted before storing using `sessionEncryptionKey`. Additionally, you can enable TLS for Redis connections.

+The project provides two mocking patterns:
+
+### State-Based Mocks (Basic)
+
+Located in `main_test.go`, `mocks_test.go`. Simple mocks that store data in struct fields.
+
+| Mock | Interface | Description |
+|------|-----------|-------------|
+| `MockJWKCache` | `JWKCacheInterface` | Simple state-based mock with JWKS/Err fields |
+| `MockTokenVerifier` | `TokenVerifier` | Function-based mock for token verification |

+    Err:  nil,
+}
+tOidc := &TraefikOidc{
+    jwkCache: mock,
+    // ...
+}
+```
+
+### Enhanced State-Based Mocks (with Call Tracking)
+
+Located in `enhanced_mocks_test.go`. State-based mocks with built-in call tracking and assertion helpers.
+
+| Mock | Interface | Description |

+
+**Usage:**
+```go
+mock := &EnhancedMockJWKCache{
+    JWKS: &JWKSet{Keys: []JWK{jwk}},
+}
+
+// Make calls
+result, err := mock.GetJWKS(ctx, "https://example.com/jwks", nil)
+
+// Verify calls were made
+mock.AssertGetJWKSCalled(t)
+mock.AssertGetJWKSCalledWith(t, "https://example.com/jwks")
+mock.AssertGetJWKSCallCount(t, 1)
+

+
+**Features:**
+- Track all calls with parameters and timestamps
+- Built-in assertion helpers using testify
+- Thread-safe for concurrent tests
+- `Reset()` method to clear state between tests
+- `LastCall()` to inspect most recent call
+
+### Testify-Based Mocks
+
+Located in `testify_mocks_test.go`. Mocks using testify's `.On()/.Return()` pattern for behavior verification.
+
+| Mock | Interface | Description |
+|------|-----------|-------------|
+| `TestifyJWKCache` | `JWKCacheInterface` | Testify mock with `.On()/.Return()` |
+| `TestifyTokenVerifier` | `TokenVerifier` | Testify mock for token verification |
+| `TestifyTokenExchanger` | `TokenExchanger` | Testify mock for token exchange |
+| `TestifyCacheInterface` | `CacheInterface` | Testify mock for cache operations |

+
+// After test
+mock.AssertExpectations(t)
+```
+
+### Testutil Package Mocks
+
+Located in `internal/testutil/mocks/`. Generic mocks for testing the test infrastructure itself.
+
+```go
+import "github.com/lukaszraczylo/traefikoidc/internal/testutil"
+
+mock := testutil.NewJWKCacheMock()
+mock.On("GetJWKS", mock.Anything, mock.Anything, mock.Anything).
+    Return(&mocks.JWKSet{Keys: []mocks.JWK{{Kty: "RSA"}}}, nil)
+```
+
+### Choosing the Right Mock
+
+| Use Case | Recommended Mock |
+|----------|-----------------|
+| Simple return values only | Basic state-based (`MockJWKCache`) |
+| Return values + verify calls made | Enhanced state-based (`EnhancedMockJWKCache`) |
+| Complex call expectations | Testify-based (`TestifyJWKCache`) |
+| Verify call order/sequence | Testify-based |
+| HTTP endpoint simulation | `MockOAuthProvider` |
+| New testify suite tests | Enhanced or Testify-based |
+
+**Decision Guide:**
+
+1. **Basic State-Based**: Use when you only need to control return values and don't care about verifying interactions.
+
+2. **Enhanced State-Based**: Use when you want to verify calls were made with specific parameters, but prefer simpler setup than testify's `.On()/.Return()` pattern.
+
+3. **Testify-Based**: Use when you need complex behavior like different returns per call, strict call ordering, or detailed expectation matching.
+
+## Token Fixtures
+
+The `testutil.TokenFixture` generates JWT tokens for testing:
+
+```go
+fixture, err := testutil.NewTokenFixture()
+
+// Valid token with default claims
+token, _ := fixture.ValidToken(nil)
+
+// Token with custom claims
+token, _ := fixture.ValidToken(map[string]interface{}{
+    "email": "test@example.com",
+    "roles": []string{"admin"},
+})
+
+// Expired token
+token, _ := fixture.ExpiredToken()
+
+// Token with specific roles/groups
+token, _ := fixture.TokenWithRoles([]string{"admin", "user"})
+token, _ := fixture.TokenWithGroups([]string{"developers"})
+
+// Token with clock skew
+token, _ := fixture.TokenWithSkew(-2 * time.Minute)  // expired 2 min ago
+token, _ := fixture.TokenWithSkew(5 * time.Minute)   // expires in 5 min
+
+// Token missing specific claims
+token, _ := fixture.TokenMissingClaim("email", "sub")
+
+// Malformed token
+token := fixture.MalformedToken()  // "not.a.valid.jwt"
+
+// Get JWKS for verification
+jwks := fixture.GetJWKS()
+```
+
+## Mock OIDC Server
+
+The `testutil.OIDCServer` provides a fully functional mock OIDC provider:
+
+```go
+// Default configuration
+server := testutil.NewOIDCServer(nil)
+defer server.Close()
+
+// Custom configuration
+config := testutil.DefaultServerConfig()
+config.Issuer = "https://custom-issuer.com"
+config.TokenError = &testutil.OIDCError{
+    Error:       "invalid_grant",
+    Description: "Authorization code expired",
+}
+server := testutil.NewOIDCServer(config)
+
+// Provider-specific configurations
+googleConfig := testutil.GoogleServerConfig()
+azureConfig := testutil.AzureServerConfig()
+auth0Config := testutil.Auth0ServerConfig()
+keycloakConfig := testutil.KeycloakServerConfig()
+
+// Behavior configurations
+slowConfig := testutil.SlowServerConfig(100 * time.Millisecond)
+rateLimitedConfig := testutil.RateLimitedServerConfig(5)  // Limit after 5 requests
+```
+
+### Server Endpoints
+
+| Endpoint | Description |
+|----------|-------------|
+| `/.well-known/openid-configuration` | OIDC discovery document |
+| `/authorize` | Authorization endpoint |
+| `/token` | Token exchange endpoint |
+| `/jwks` | JSON Web Key Set |
+| `/userinfo` | User information endpoint |
+| `/introspect` | Token introspection |
+| `/revoke` | Token revocation |
+| `/logout` | End session endpoint |
+
+### Request Tracking
+
+```go
+server := testutil.NewOIDCServer(nil)
+
+// Make requests...
+
+count := server.GetRequestCount()
+requests := server.GetRequests()
+server.Reset()  // Clear tracking
+```
+
+## Writing Test Suites
+
+### Basic Suite Structure
+
+```go
+type MyTestSuite struct {
+    suite.Suite
+
+    fixture *testutil.TokenFixture
+    tOidc   *TraefikOidc
+}
+
+func (s *MyTestSuite) SetupSuite() {
+    var err error
+    s.fixture, err = testutil.NewTokenFixture()
+    s.Require().NoError(err)
+}
+
+func (s *MyTestSuite) SetupTest() {
+    // Per-test setup
+    s.tOidc = &TraefikOidc{
+        issuerURL: s.fixture.Issuer,
+        // ...
+    }
+}
+
+func (s *MyTestSuite) TearDownTest() {
+    // Per-test cleanup
+}
+
+func (s *MyTestSuite) TestSomething() {
+    token, err := s.fixture.ValidToken(nil)
+    s.Require().NoError(err)
+
+    err = s.tOidc.VerifyToken(token)
+    s.NoError(err)
+}
+
+func TestMyTestSuite(t *testing.T) {
+    suite.Run(t, new(MyTestSuite))
+}
+```
+
+### Table-Driven Tests
+
+```go
+func (s *MyTestSuite) TestClockSkewEdgeCases() {
+    testCases := []struct {
+        name       string
+        skew       time.Duration
+        shouldPass bool
+    }{
+        {"valid_token", 5 * time.Minute, true},
+        {"expired_within_tolerance", -1 * time.Minute, true},
+        {"expired_beyond_tolerance", -10 * time.Minute, false},
+    }
+
+    for _, tc := range testCases {
+        s.Run(tc.name, func() {
+            token, err := s.fixture.TokenWithSkew(tc.skew)
+            s.Require().NoError(err)
+
+            err = s.tOidc.VerifyToken(token)
+            if tc.shouldPass {
+                s.NoError(err)
+            } else {
+                s.Error(err)
+            }
+        })
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Test Categories
+
+### Happy Path Tests
+
+Test the expected successful scenarios:
+
+- Valid token verification
+- Successful token exchange
+- Session creation and retrieval
+- Cache operations
+
+### Error Case Tests
+
+Test failure scenarios:
+
+- Expired tokens
+- Invalid signatures
+- Wrong issuer/audience
+- Network failures
+- Rate limiting
+
+### Edge Case Tests
+
+Test boundary conditions:
+
+- Clock skew tolerance boundaries
+- Unicode/emoji in claims
+- Very large claim values

-# Google OAuth Integration Fix
-
-## Problem Overview
-
-The Traefik OIDC plugin encountered an authentication issue when using Google as an OAuth provider. Authentication would fail with the following error:
-
-```
-Some requested scopes were invalid. {valid=[openid, https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email, https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile], invalid=[offline_access]}
-```
-
-This occurred because Google's OAuth implementation differs from the standard OIDC specification in how it handles refresh tokens and offline access.
-
-## Technical Details of the Issue
-
-### Standard OIDC Provider Behavior
-
-Most OpenID Connect (OIDC) providers follow the standard specification, where:
-- To obtain a refresh token, clients include the `offline_access` scope in their authorization request
-- This allows authenticated sessions to persist beyond the initial access token expiration
-
-### Google's Non-Standard Approach
-
-Google's OAuth implementation deviates from the standard by:
-1. Not supporting the `offline_access` scope, instead rejecting it as an invalid scope
-2. Requiring the `access_type=offline` query parameter for requesting refresh tokens
-3. Needing the `prompt=consent` parameter to consistently issue refresh tokens (especially for repeat authentications)
-
-This difference caused the plugin to fail when configured for Google OAuth, as it was using a standard approach that didn't work with Google's implementation.
-
-## Solution Implementation
-
-The fix involved modifying the authentication flow to specifically handle Google providers:
-
-1. **Google Provider Detection**: Added code to detect if the OIDC provider is Google based on the issuer URL:
-
-```go
-// Check if we're dealing with a Google OIDC provider
-isGoogleProvider := strings.Contains(t.issuerURL, "google") || 
-                   strings.Contains(t.issuerURL, "accounts.google.com")
-```
-
-2. **Provider-Specific Auth URL Building**: Modified the `buildAuthURL` function to handle Google and non-Google providers differently:
-
-```go
-// Handle offline access differently for Google vs other providers
-if isGoogleProvider {
-    // For Google, use access_type=offline parameter instead of offline_access scope
-    params.Set("access_type", "offline")
-    t.logger.Debug("Google OIDC provider detected, added access_type=offline for refresh tokens")
-
-    // Add prompt=consent for Google to ensure refresh token is issued
-    params.Set("prompt", "consent")
-    t.logger.Debug("Google OIDC provider detected, added prompt=consent to ensure refresh tokens")
-} else {
-    // For non-Google providers, use the offline_access scope
-    hasOfflineAccess := false
-    for _, scope := range scopes {
-        if scope == "offline_access" {
-            hasOfflineAccess = true
-            break
-        }
-    }
-
-    if !hasOfflineAccess {
-        scopes = append(scopes, "offline_access")
-    }
-}
-```
-
-3. **Token Refresh Enhancement**: Improved the token refresh logic to better handle Google's behavior, particularly when refresh tokens aren't returned in refresh responses (as Google often uses the same refresh token for multiple requests).
-
-## Why This Approach Works
-
-This solution aligns with Google's OAuth 2.0 documentation which specifies:
-
-1. **Access Type Parameter**: Google's [OAuth 2.0 documentation](https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/web-server#offline) states that to request a refresh token, applications must include `access_type=offline` in the authorization request.
-
-2. **Prompt Parameter**: The [`prompt=consent`](https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/web-server#forceapprovalprompt) parameter forces the consent screen to appear, ensuring a refresh token is issued even if the user has previously granted access.
-
-3. **Scope Validation**: Google strictly validates scopes and rejects non-standard ones like `offline_access`, instead relying on the `access_type` parameter to indicate whether a refresh token should be issued.
-
-By adapting to these Google-specific requirements, the OIDC plugin can now seamlessly work with both standard OIDC providers and Google's OAuth implementation.
-
-## Testing and Verification
-
-Comprehensive tests were implemented to verify the solution:
-
-1. **Provider Detection Test**: Ensures the code correctly identifies Google providers and applies the appropriate parameters.
-
-2. **Auth URL Parameter Tests**: Verifies that:
-   - For Google providers: `access_type=offline` and `prompt=consent` are included; `offline_access` scope is NOT included
-   - For non-Google providers: `offline_access` scope IS included; `access_type` parameter is NOT added
-
-3. **Token Refresh Tests**: Validates that Google's token refresh process works correctly, including the preservation of refresh tokens when Google doesn't return a new one.
-
-4. **Integration Test**: Tests the complete authentication flow with a mocked Google provider to ensure all components work together seamlessly.
-
-Sample test case (simplified):
-
-```go
-t.Run("Google provider detection adds required parameters", func(t *testing.T) {
-    // Test buildAuthURL to ensure it adds access_type=offline and prompt=consent for Google
-    authURL := tOidc.buildAuthURL("https://example.com/callback", "state123", "nonce123", "")
-
-    // Check that access_type=offline was added (not offline_access scope for Google)
-    if !strings.Contains(authURL, "access_type=offline") {
-        t.Errorf("access_type=offline not added to Google auth URL: %s", authURL)
-    }
-
-    // Verify offline_access scope is NOT included for Google providers
-    if strings.Contains(authURL, "offline_access") {
-        t.Errorf("offline_access scope incorrectly added to Google auth URL: %s", authURL)
-    }
-
-    // Check that prompt=consent was added
-    if !strings.Contains(authURL, "prompt=consent") {
-        t.Errorf("prompt=consent not added to Google auth URL: %s", authURL)
-    }
-})
-```
-
-## Usage Guidance for Developers
-
-When configuring the Traefik OIDC middleware for Google:
-
-1. **Provider URL**: Use `https://accounts.google.com` as the `providerURL` value
-
-2. **Client Configuration**: Create OAuth 2.0 credentials in the Google Cloud Console:
-   - Configure the authorized redirect URI to match your `callbackURL` setting
-   - Ensure your OAuth consent screen is properly configured (especially if you want long-lived refresh tokens)
-
-3. **Configuration Example**:
-
-```yaml
-apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
-kind: Middleware
-metadata:
-  name: oidc-google
-  namespace: traefik
-spec:
-  plugin:
-    traefikoidc:
-      providerURL: https://accounts.google.com
-      clientID: your-google-client-id.apps.googleusercontent.com
-      clientSecret: your-google-client-secret
-      sessionEncryptionKey: your-secure-encryption-key-min-32-chars
-      callbackURL: /oauth2/callback
-      scopes:
-        - openid
-        - email
-        - profile
-        # Note: DO NOT manually add offline_access scope for Google
-        # The middleware handles this automatically and correctly
-```
-
-4. **Troubleshooting**: If sessions still expire prematurely with Google (typically after 1 hour):
-   - Ensure your Google Cloud OAuth consent screen is set to "External" and "Production" mode (not "Testing" mode, which limits refresh token validity)
-   - Review your application logs with `logLevel: debug` to check for refresh token errors
-   - Verify you're using a version of the middleware that includes this fix
-
-## Conclusion
-
-This fix ensures that the Traefik OIDC plugin works seamlessly with Google's OAuth implementation without requiring users to make provider-specific configuration changes. The middleware now intelligently adapts to the provider's requirements, making it more robust and user-friendly while maintaining compatibility with the standard OIDC specification for other providers.
