Description

the Makefile currently uses simple sleep to wait for server start for testing

implement a mechanism that will poll the system to detect when the socket is actually opened instead (e.g. using netstat)

also extend the tests related to tls.py

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the current sleep based wait mechanism in the Makefile, implement a polling method using netstat or similar to detect when the server socket is open, and add more tests for tls.py.
