You are testing what happens *if* the proxy closes the connection. Though that wouldn't be normal behavior for a proxy. If you are sending 407 to the client then you would want to keep the connection open so the client can retry the request. Maybe we need some comments in ProxyServer to indicate that the connection is being closed to test this specific scenario. Though if ProxyServer is used in other tests, I wonder if it might be better to use some flag or switch to enable this connection closing behavior? ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/2649
