UPDATE: there is a option you can pass to the config step which should achieve the same thing: useInsecureSSL
A very short post regarding an issue I recently came across while testing an application I'm working on.
My application needs to interface with and existing PHP application that uses SSL. To acceptance test this functionality I am writing a WebTest that drives both applications to assert information is flowing correctly between them.
Unfortunately the test instance of the PHP application I have been given to use has a self-signed SSL certificate which causes WebTest to fail with a SSLHandshakeException.
To ignore the self signed certificate, add the following line to your test:
groovy('step.context.currentWebClientContext.webClient.useInsecureSSL = true')
