I am not aware about having any non-standard setup, I don’t think I ever did anything else network-wise than connecting to a Wi-Fi network.

I tried again this morning (to try if it could be some temporary issue with my internet provider), I also tried connecting to internet through my iPhone as a hot-spot, I still get the same errors in both tests.

I have firewall off in System Preferences > Security & Privacy.
In System Preferences > Network > Wi-Fi > Advanced… > Proxies > Select a protocol to configure:, I have no protocol checked.

Looking forward to the updated README, as I cannot make sense of how to edit .ninja_log to achieve what I want.

This does not help as on subsequent ninja call, the files get reinstantiated and the same tests fail again.

Thanks for the suggestions so far.
