Install TestPion on Linux ​

Requirements ​

  • A 64-bit (x86_64) distribution from 2020 or later, for example Ubuntu 20.04+, Debian 11+, Fedora 36+ or openSUSE Leap 15.4+.
  • A desktop environment with a Secret Service provider (GNOME Keyring or KWallet) to store secrets. Most desktops have one; without it the app refuses to save secrets rather than store them unencrypted.

Linux installation guide →

AppImage (any distribution) ​

bash
chmod +x TestPion-*-linux-x86_64.AppImage
./TestPion-*-linux-x86_64.AppImage

On Ubuntu 22.04 and later, AppImages need FUSE 2: sudo apt install libfuse2 (on Ubuntu 24.04: libfuse2t64).

Debian, Ubuntu and derivatives (.deb) ​

bash
sudo apt install ./TestPion-*-linux-amd64.deb

Fedora, RHEL and openSUSE (.rpm) ​

bash
sudo dnf install ./TestPion-*-linux-x86_64.rpm     # Fedora, RHEL, Rocky
sudo zypper install ./TestPion-*-linux-x86_64.rpm  # openSUSE

The packages add TestPion to your application menu.

Continue with your first request.

Updating ​

Install the newer package the same way, or replace the AppImage. Your workspaces and settings in ~/.testpion are kept.

Uninstall ​

bash
sudo apt remove testpion     # .deb
sudo dnf remove testpion     # .rpm

To remove your data too, delete ~/.testpion and ~/.config/TestPion.

Troubleshooting ​

  • The window is blank or the app crashes on start (some virtual machines and older GPUs): start it with --disable-gpu.
  • "Secure storage is not available" when saving a secret: install and unlock gnome-keyring (or KWallet), or supply the secret as a TESTPION_SECRET_* environment variable.
