> Issue Type: New Feature

> Affects Versions: 4.5.2
> Reporter: Timothee Maret
> Assignee: Simone Tripodi
> Fix For: Future

> In deployments other than production (e.g. dev, qa, integration testing,
> etc.) it is often useful to deploy self-signed certificates instead of
> certificates signed by a trusted CA for cost and simplicity reasons.
> By default, the http client does not validate a self signed certificate
> because it is not signed by a trusted CA root.
> One way to have the http client to validate the self signed certificate is to
> add the self-signed certificate (or the detached CA root that signed it) in
> the java trustore.
> This operation is a configuration only change (no need to change code)
> however it typically requires accessing the FS and the scope of trust can't
> be easily modified at runtime.
> Another way to have the http client to validate the self signed certificate
> is to use the TrustSelfSignedStrategy [0] strategy when building the http
> client.
> This requires modifying the code.
> In order to use the second approach without modifying code, it would be
> interesting to allow configuring a set of URIs for which the relaxed SSL mode
> should be used.
> The configuration could be implemented similarly to the implementation of the
> central prox configuration (OSGI) in HTTPCLIENT-1238. In addition to allowing
> sel-signed certificates, the configuration could as well allow to skip FQDN
> check using the NoopHostnameVerifier [1].
> Of course, this feature *must not* be deployed in production environment as
> it is totally insecure.
