webdriver - handle untrusted ssl certificate

While doing automation of https site there are chances when you get the following error.
This Connection is Untrusted. 

Reason: This certificate is not issued by some valid authority, it's a self signed certificate.

Solution:

• Create a new profile and add this certificate in that profile by using following steps.
• Make sure you are accessing site though the domain for which certificate has issued.
•  If you get the above screen after accessible the site, You need to add certificate in Exception so next time it doesn't give you error.
• However while adding certificate make sure "Permanently store this exception" check box is selected. 
• If  "Permanently store this exception" is enable the history.
  
  
  
• Now you need to give path of this newly created profile while creating the object of WebDriver.
