Description

While exploring real black-box testing with federated servers, I encountered the issue, that our container runs with self-signed certificates.

This is an issue when wanting to setup federated sharing, as the self-signed root certificate is not known to the owncloud trying to open a ssl connection.

Ref: https://github.com/owncloud/core/pull/32413

We could establish a helper, from which we could fetch the ssl certificate.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the testing repository and the referenced ownCloud core pull request #32413 to understand the federated SSL setup and how self-signed certificates are encountered. Define the helper's expected inputs and output before implementing it; done should mean it can fetch a certificate for use by the testing environment.
