Zusammenfassung:	Automated testing of an application under test (AUT) often requires providing valid responses to an authentication challenge. Many AUTs require a username and password and, increasingly, a time-based one-time password (TOTP) that complicate automated testing. By storing a shared secret on a client device, a human can train an automated testing application to select the shared secret and provide the shared secret to a shared secret provider. The shared secret provider then provides a token code as the TOTP. The shared secret may be stored as a graphical element, such as a quick response (QR) code, and may further correspond to a particular username used to test the AUT.
