> The AuthenticationFilter did not respect the default retry limit of 3 retries in case of invalid credentials supplied.
> 
> This PR helps to resolve the bug and tests it with default and updated retry limit set via `jdk.httpclient.auth.retrylimit=1`.
> 
> The test is green with tiers 1, 2, 3 and the test is stable.
