There are currently already several eduGAIN checking tools that examine the quality of an eduGAIN federation’s metadata, the connection status of their IdPs or the attribute release status of their IdPs. The results of these checks are public but only few federation operators seem to regularly consult the results. 
The eduGAIN Support team plays a pivotal role in trying to make federation operators and sometimes also entities aware of some of these issues, but as this is done manually and it is tedious work, they typically only act in case of complaints (e.g. UK/InCommon metadata import filters rejecting entities), which means not not all entities are engaged with and it is done so only irregularly.

It would be an improvement if all federation operators would receive a monthly email summarizing the state of their federation.  Therefor this activity proposes to create a tool that aggregates the combined result of all these checks into 1 comprehensive infographic per entity. This infographic should also show how well the entity is doing in relation to its peers. At the same time it should provide pointers to documentation on how to actually improve. A second infographic will generate an overview for federation operators, summarizing the per entity findings. This page should also compare their own federation with their peers.
The tool will put this information readily into the hands of the federation operators allowing them to decide if and how to pass it on towards the entities in their federation.

In addition, there is work ongoing to check for status of various entity categories, like CoCo, R&S and SIRTFI. This is currently happening in separate teams. Rather then reinvent the wheel and create yet another tool, we should investigate joining efforts.
