I have MFA-Duo enabled globally, but this is complicating our scripted
regression testing. Rather than try to make it work with this right now,
I think it would be easier to try to make an exception for the service
definition used by our regression test (assuming that results in no Duo
checks being included altogether for the service... else so much for this
idea). Bypass rules are discussed here

https://apereo.github.io/cas/development/installation/Configuring-Multifactor-Authentication.html#bypass-rules

But it's not clear to me how they are actually used, or if there is in
fact a way to bypass MFA on a per-service basis. I can't find any examples
or relevant-seeming properties in the documentation.

Bypass rules cannot be done per service now. Certainly something that can be added in a follow-up minor release perhaps. Some examples in the docs describe typical use cases, but nothing that can be done per service, if you have enabled MFA globally.

Ouch. Yeah this is missing from the docs. I’ll take care of it shortly.

Hi Baron,

Chris Bahrami here from Duo...

One solution I would suggest to help for regression testing purposes would be to set the bypass rule for a single user within the Duo Admin Panel. This will allow your regression testing scripts to not require human interaction. Note, this will of course bypass any secondary authentication, but you will still see an entry within the Duo Authentication Logs indicating a "bypassed" authentication attempt.

Please let me know if there is anything Duo related I can assist with.
