Description

Minor change that may be useful in future tests for TLS.


This doesn't make any difference to the tests performed here (partly due to --preference).

It would make a difference if performing a test for receiving a grade - which would otherwise fail due to chain of trust not being verifiable for a self-signed certificate (or a signed certificate without a CA public key to verify against).

NOTE: The ENV required ADDTL_CA_FILES is specific to the testssl.sh:3.1dev rolling release. Earlier versions used ADDITIONAL_CA_FILES.

Type of change

  • Improvement (non-breaking change that does improve existing functionality)

Checklist:

  • My code follows the style guidelines of this project
  • I have performed a self-review of my own code
  • New and existing unit tests pass locally with my changes
