> Please review this test-only PR which introduces testing of the unspecified > but long-standing fallback to FTP for non-local files in the 'file' URL > scheme. > > This in preparation for the upcoming proposal to disable the feature by > default in JDK-8353440. > > Since we cannot reliably bind an FTP server to port 21, the test instead uses > an HTTP proxy, binding to an ephemeral port. This menas we don't test > non-proxy code paths. We still test that the FTP fallback is used, which is > the key point here. (We aim to test file URL connections, not FTP URL > connection internals) > > An alternative here could be to just verify that the returned URLConnection > is an instance of FtpURLConnection. However, I opted for an end-to-end test > here, since the amount of extra code seems reasonable. > > By temporarly moving this test to tier1, I was able to confirm this test runs > green also on Windows GHA.
