In https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-test-infra/2015JanMar/0000.html, James noted that it is now possible to load subresources over HTTPS, which is ever so excellent. That said, a number of features (Service Workers, Mixed Content, etc) require the test itself to be run under HTTPS. I'd like to start putting together test suites for some WebAppSec specs, but that's proving to be a difficult task. In Blink, we've settled on a "*.https.html" naming convention for such tests which ensures that our test runner opens the test over HTTPS. That is, any test with `.https.` in the filename will point to an HTTPS URL, and not to an HTTP URL. Would such a system work for web-platform-tests? Note that we don't have a ton of such tests in Blink, so I'm happy to change our behavior to align with whatever works for WPT and other user agents. The filename-based solution is pretty simple and straightforward, but we're flexible. :) -- Mike West <mkwst@google.com>, @mikewest Google Germany GmbH, Dienerstrasse 12, 80331 München, Germany, Registergericht und -nummer: Hamburg, HRB 86891, Sitz der Gesellschaft: Hamburg, Geschäftsführer: Graham Law, Christine Elizabeth Flores (Sorry; I'm legally required to add this exciting detail to emails.
