No, actually I used a web browser, and it automatically filled in my

It didn't work. I've included the session below, beginning with after

The test suite can attempt to connect to public servers to ensure that the
code is working properly. If you are behind a strict firewall or have no
network connectivity, these tests may fail (through no fault of the code).
Do you want to run the live tests (y/N)? [N]
