I agree that these tests are more integration tests than unit tests;
however, they are useful in exercising the code and options we provide
(otherwise we wouldn't know whether e.g. PROTOCOL_TLSv1 really does what
it claims to do).
I think we can simply skip these tests in maintenance branches, where we
don't provide the necessary API to make them pass reliably. |
