This is the file you store the ssl-certificate/key from your 
testing-webserver (https) into. You have to create this file with the 
java keytools (google: java keytool).

If I remember right then you have to export the certificate into a file 
- using a browser like firefox ....

Using this key inside the keystore will ensure your are using the right 
https-server.
