OCSP Expect-Staple is a report that will notify you if you aren't OCSP Stapling properly. OCSP Stapling is a performance and privacy feature that site operators can configure to prevent visitors from making online OCSP revocation requests.
OCSP Expect-Staple is seen by many as a pre-cursor to OCSP Must-Staple, an attempt at fixing the broken revocation system. A site must deploy OCSP Expect-Staple before considering OCSP Must-Staple to ensure they are ready.
