TestChannel() Fails when trying the test a secure connection.

[JWB4AZ]

TestChannel() fails unexpectedly when testing a secure connection.
I'm using QPID 9.1.0 with jdk-14.0.2. QPID has been edited to handle the secure connection.
The Uri example format is as follows: "amqps://user:[email protected]:5671"
The return exception has a generic HRESULT == COR_E_EXCEPTION and the InnerException.HResult == COR_E_IO.
If I ignore this failure and go on to open the endpoint, it open successfully and after a call to AddPublishChannel(), TestPublishChannel() is successful.
The problem occurs when QPID is not running.
In this case, again TestChannel() fails as expected.
The return exception has a generic HRESULT == COR_E_EXCEPTION and the InnerException.HResult == E_FAIL.
Now if I ignore the failure, the endpoint opens successfully and after a call to AddPublishChannel(), TestPublishChannel() now fails.
The endpoint is disposed, but there is a memory leak. The memory leak results in growing heap usage that will in the end crash my program.
If TestChannel() did not fail with a secure connection, I could avoid the memory leak by not trying to open an endpoint and publish a channel when QPID is not running.
