# Accepting Insecure Certificates

You might want to test a website that does not (yet) have a valid SSL certificate (either it's expired, self-signed, or other).

We recommend using our [TestingBot Tunnel](https://testingbot.com/support/tunnel) for this. The Tunnel will automatically convert the invalid certificate to a certificate that all TestingBot VMs and Devices trust. You can also use the W3C `acceptInsecureCerts` capability (set it to `true` on your browser options), but it does not work as reliably as the TestingBot Tunnel approach.
