HTTP Connection Error in cleanupSpec() Function in Spock: "SSL is disabled"

[ratnahalder]

Expected Behavior

I'm encountering an issue when making an HTTP request in the cleanupSpec() function of a Spock test. The same HTTP GET request works perfectly in both the test case and the cleanup() function, but when it's called from cleanupSpec(). I expected the HTTP client to remain active until cleanupSpec() is successfully executed.

I also posted this question on StackOverflow earlier. Here is the link: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78897561/http-connection-error-in-cleanupspec-function-in-spock-ssl-is-disabled.

Actual Behaviour

Instead of successfully executing HTTP request, I'm getting the following error:
Connect Error: Cannot send HTTPS request. SSL is disabled io.micronaut.http.client.exceptions.HttpClientException: Connect Error: Cannot send HTTPS request. SSL is disabled

Detail error message:

Temporary Solution

Manually creating the HttpClient and managing its lifecycle, but it slows down our system. Therefore, we are looking for a permanent solution to this issue.

Steps To Reproduce

Just run this sample micronaut test class:

`@MicronautTest
class TestGetSpec extends Specification {

@Shared
@Inject
HttpClient httpClient

def cleanup() {
    println("TestGETSpec:: Calling cleanup() function")

    def response = httpClient.toBlocking().exchange(
            HttpRequest.GET("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1").accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON),
            Object
    )
}

def cleanupSpec() {
    println("TestGETSpec:: Calling cleanupSpec() function")

    def response = httpClient.toBlocking().exchange(
            HttpRequest.GET("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1").accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON),
            Object
    )
}

def "test HTTP request with ReactorHttpClient"() {
    when:
    def response = httpClient.toBlocking().exchange(
            HttpRequest.GET("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1").accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON),
            Object
    )

    then:
    response.status.code == 200
}

}`
