It can be useful in tests like this to point the test at an HTTPS endpoint, even though it won't actually serve valid HTTPS, for example because it's running in a test environment.
Making the test skip TLS verification should make it easier to run in such test environments. Conformance doesn't rely on TLS verification itself (explicitly, anyway), and any TLS configuration should be tested outside of OCI conformance, so I don't consider this a regression of the strictness of the test.
