Well, you've done a lot more thorough testing of the different versions of Java than I have. I regularly see many more tests failing that have JDK11 in the title, but perhaps it's all the TLS stuff.
bq. ...think, if you want to use SSL/TLS, the status in Java 11 is undefined This is a pretty important caveat, I have numerous clients that insist on TLS. So are you saying that this problem is in the _tests_ or enabling SSL/TLS with JDK11 in general?
