Is any of FIPS about ensuring interoperability?

  Yeah, there's a ton of correctness testing involved. That's mostly at the algorithm, rather than the module level, so it'll fall under CAVP/ACVP rather than CMVP.

    That's not for interop, that's for "are you actually doing the crypto you said you'd do". It's designed to prevent broken crypto, not to ensure coordination between parties.

      Correctness to spec ensures interop works when everyone is on the same spec.
