Description
Our experience with pyOpenSSL + TLS 1.3 beta testing suggests that testing a broader set of TLS versions is valuable. We can do that by using pytest.mark.parametrize on tests we want to run with multiple TLS methods.

Research direction
Start by locating the pyOpenSSL tests that currently exercise a single TLS method and review how TLS setup is configured. Use pytest.mark.parametrize to run the relevant tests across the intended TLS methods, then verify that the test suite passes for each parameterized case.
