A checklist, deliberately not a single score
Every row here is either Pass, Fail, or Not verified - and the summary count only divides by checks that actually ran, listing separately how many could not be tested from this environment. A single manufactured percentage that quietly includes skipped checks as failures (or worse, as passes) would be easy to produce and would mean nothing.
What is checked
- The certificate is not expired.
- The certificate chain builds without errors.
- The certificate is not self-signed.
- The signature algorithm is not SHA-1.
- TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 are disabled (only counted when this checker's own environment was able to actually attempt the handshake - see the TLS version checker for why that sometimes cannot be tested).
- TLS 1.2 or 1.3 is supported.
- An HSTS header is present.
What this is not
Not a penetration test, not a vulnerability scanner, and not a substitute for a proper security review before something security-critical goes live. It is exactly what it says: a handful of specific, individually-checkable facts about how a server's TLS is currently configured.

See SSL/TLS configuration checker for the same underlying data laid out as reference rather than pass/fail, and HSTS checker for that header's full detail.
