Rule testing cause authentication error on Elasticsearch

[Pyton]

When I hit test rule it causes authentication error:

13:36:41.618Z ERROR elastalert-server:
    TestController:  Failed to test rule with error: WARNING:elasticsearch:GET http://localhost:9200/ [status:401 request:0.003s]
    
    Error connecting to ElasticSearch:
    AuthenticationException(401, u'security_exception', {u'status': 401, u'error': {u'header': {u'WWW-Authenticate': u'Basic realm="security" charset="UTF-8"'}, u'root_cause': [{u'header': {u'WWW-Authenticate': u'Basic realm="security" charset="UTF-8"'}, u'reason': u'missing authentication credentials for REST request [/]', u'type': u'security_exception'}], u'type': u'security_exception', u'reason': u'missing authentication credentials for REST request [/]'}})

    WARNING:elastalert:Error connecting to Elasticsearch for rule SSH abuse (ElastAlert 3.0.1) - 2. The rule has been disabled.

es_username and es_password are set in elastalert.yaml and in config.yml

I even try put it in rule file but then it causes timeouts. Setting up indexes during start was ok.

I'm using ES 7.2 with Kibana plugin
