Abstract We present a weak gravitational lensing analysis of 815 deg2 of i-band imaging from the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS-i-800). In contrast to the deep r-band observations, which take priority during excellent seeing conditions and form the primary KiDS data set (KiDS‐r‐450), the complementary yet shallower KiDS-i-800 spans a wide range of observing conditions. The overlapping KiDS-i-800 and KiDS‐r‐450 imaging therefore provides a unique opportunity to assess the robustness of weak lensing measurements. In our analysis we introduce two new ‘null’ tests. The ‘nulled’ two-point shear correlation function uses a matched catalogue to show that the calibrated KiDS-i-800 and KiDS‐r‐450 shear measurements agree at the level of 1 ± 4 per cent. We use five galaxy lens samples to determine a ‘nulled’ galaxy–galaxy lensing signal from the full KiDS-i-800 and KiDS‐r‐450 surveys and find that the measurements agree to 7 ± 5 per cent when the KiDS-i-800 source redshift distribution is calibrated using either spectroscopic redshifts, or the 30-band photometric redshifts from the COSMOS survey.
