Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hickory-dns/hickory-dns/issues/2783

I was trawling through the test configurations and found implicitclass.zone: https://github.com/hickory-dns/hickory-dns/blob/main/tests/test-data/test_configs/default/implicitclass.zone
and nonewline.zone: https://github.com/hickory-dns/hickory-dns/blob/main/tests/test-data/test_configs/default/nonewline.zone

I can't seem to find any reference beyond testing both externally and internally to the project. Does it serve any function beyond testing? The naming suggest it could be a security zone to me.

Indeed, these are only used for some tests. Not sure what you mean by "security zone" in this context.

Ah, no it was a bad way of putting it. Was concerned it might be a default record to avoid a common mistake, one I would be unaware of, even if I'm not sure how one would exploit dns record unless for a mitm. Thank you for clarifying. Closing as complete.
