Description

Jetty version(s) 12.1.x

Jetty Environment Core

HTTP version Any

Java version/vendor (use: java -version) Any

OS type/version Any

Description The new InetAddressPattern in Jetty 12.1.x is not adequately being tested. We need to add a new InetAddressPatternTest to verify behavior, and to catch potential regression in behavior in the future.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Find the InetAddressPattern class in the Jetty codebase, review its current usage in ConditionalHandler, and create a new InetAddressPatternTest covering common patterns and edge cases. Run the test suite to ensure it passes.
