but the i need to validate this not the pragmatically, i need to validate using user friendly way. For example i need to validate using some website which take password and salt value and generate the hashed password.
Also i stored the hashed password as a byte array. So i need to convert it to String before doing validation.

Hi Stephan,

This is for just practise. I need to generate the hash password using salt and password. Then need to check it is generating same value. Can you provide me a way for it.

I used sha512 with salt value. So i need to verify the generated hash value is correct ?
I am using binary array as a salt.
I am using https://www.baeldung.com/java-password-hashing as reference. below is the code. So i will save the hashed valeu and salt in DB.


I need to verify that the generated hashed value by manually . foe example i need to hash the same password using that salt value and check that i am getting same hashed value . I found below site but it does not provide place to add salt value ?

sha256 site

Finally i found the below site which can encode and decode the byte array to String . So i can convert the my stored byte array to the String value and used in test class.

I am following below tutorial.

https://www.baeldung.com/java-password-hashing

so the salt value in the java is a byte array. I am saving it as a byte array in DB also.
So how can i use it in my test class. For example if i write testmethod as below

I have issue since i am saving salt as a byte array in DB. So when i am testing hashing function , i need t give the save salt to get the same hash value. But in DB it saves as a byte array which is not readable. I can get the hash password from the directly for a give user, but not the salt value. I am using SQL server, so the column type of the salt is varbinary. How can i get the exact salt value for a given user?

I need to  know the salt as is it a one parameter of "get_SHA_512_SecurePassword" method. So if i am going to call that methos i need send salt as a one parameter.

I need to know how to do the unit testing for the password hashing?

for example i used sha512 for hashing my password as below



So how can i do the unit testing for this function?
because i don't have the sat value for users as they are stored in DB

I am using below code.



mysalt value is a byte array. So i believe this approach is a fine.

I just need to know how to add salt value when do hashing the password.  Currently i  am using String password and byte array for salt.

yes, it was issue of the salt since salt saved as a String it may changes the content. I saved the salt as a byte array and now it is ok. I have one more question . If i use pepper as another salt where it must be saved. in the code or config file ?

I tried to save password as hash values. I used sha512 with salt. When i try to verify the password seems it generate different hash values .I am generating random salt using SecureRandom class in java.

I have a project which has several modules. I am using intellij as a IDE and gradle as a build too.
I have  a issue that when i try to open dependency class it opens class from jar file which is build and not the actual module code. I need to know why it open the class from jar file?
