Solution:
This proxy error caused by an invalid SSL Certificate, which Java doesn't allow.
Please find the following possible solutions:

1. Setting a valid SSL certificate for the proxy.

2. Adding the current proxy certificate to the Java keystore as a trusted certificate, using the following command:

keytool -import -file YOUR_PROXY_CER_FILE -alias YOUR_PROXY_NAME -keystore <path_to_jdk>\jre\lib\security\cacerts

3. Allow an access from your company to Applitools' API servers without the proxy.
