Running CXF SAML FAT EE8 test failed with Response: Security processing failed relating to "MalformedURLException: no protocol: cxf-ehcache.xml"

Per discussion with @arunavemulapalli, opening this issue for further investigation if this will be potential runtime problem. For now to progress the FAT update with new runtime testing, adding the cxf-ehcache_ee8.xml on securityClient xml and adding @AllowedFFDC in the test methods:

securityClient_1_symSignEnc_wss4j.xml:

ws-security.cache.config.file="${server.config.dir}/cxf-ehcache_ee8.xml"

cxf-ehcache_ee8.xml:


<config

- in test method:

@AllowedFFDC(value = { "java.lang.Exception", "java.lang.ClassNotFoundException", "java.net.MalformedURLException" })
@Test
public void testSAMLCXFSignedSupportingTokens_Symmmetric() throws Exception {

...

Taking the test suite com.ibm.ws.wssecurity.fat.cxf.samltoken.OneServerTests.CxfSAMLSymSignEnc1ServerTests as an example for the associated logs:
