That's very good that you started with a test.
While VeraCrypt can open TrueCrypt volumes, it looks like a new
VeraCrypt volume is not compatible with TrueCrypt. So
truecrypt2john.py would produce uncrackable hashes. Also it seems
VeraCrypt is not supported by JtR.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VeraCrypt
"The VeraCrypt development team [...] created a new format
incompatible with that of TrueCrypt."
https://github.com/openwall/john/issues/1876
Here Dhiru Kholia says:
"VeraCrypt disk images are not compatible with TrueCrypt / CipherShed."
Issue about adding support for VeraCrypt to john is open:

Thanks!
