A tool to test TLS/SSL connections to servers using JVM's own trust store
The JRE comes with it's own set of trusted root authorities, it does not use trusted certificates from the OS. It's a problem, because many companies use their own PKI.
If application attempts to communicate via TLS/SSL to a remote host that does not have a trusted chain of security it will get the all too famous SSLHandshakeException: PKIX path building failed exception. This tool is created to help diagnose this kind of issues.
