so if using a testing env is causing changes in code to be tested, thn it should be avoided.

and in case of requirement of SSL, I think thats ok.

[Muhammad-Altabba]

I am not in favor of using jsdom for browser testing, as it already need many changes in our lib. jest + jsdom is direction that we will not go.

So we should use cypress for browser testing for now.

Sounds good. However, the case that this PR is handling does not show in the browser for local addresses. So, it would not happen with our Cypress configuration. It happens only with remote Urls that is also not secure (http and not with https). And this case is simulated in jsdom currently. However, We can also not use jsdom and just set mocking the window and set window.crypto.subtle to undefined, in order to simulate the case.
