     If a URL is supplied, it must have an authority (host:port) component.
     According to RFC 3986, having an authority component means the URL must
-    have two slashes after the scheme:
-
-    >>> _parse_proxy('file:/ftp.example.com/')
-    Traceback (most recent call last):
-    ValueError: proxy URL with no authority: 'file:/ftp.example.com/'
-
-    The first three items of the returned tuple may be None.
-
-    Examples of authority parsing:
-
-    >>> _parse_proxy('proxy.example.com')
-    (None, None, None, 'proxy.example.com')
-    >>> _parse_proxy('proxy.example.com:3128')
-    (None, None, None, 'proxy.example.com:3128')
-
-    The authority component may optionally include userinfo (assumed to be
-    username:password):
-
-    >>> _parse_proxy('joe:password@proxy.example.com')
-    (None, 'joe', 'password', 'proxy.example.com')
-    >>> _parse_proxy('joe:password@proxy.example.com:3128')
-    (None, 'joe', 'password', 'proxy.example.com:3128')
-
-    Same examples, but with URLs instead:
-
-    >>> _parse_proxy('http://proxy.example.com/')
-    ('http', None, None, 'proxy.example.com')
-    >>> _parse_proxy('http://proxy.example.com:3128/')
-    ('http', None, None, 'proxy.example.com:3128')
-    >>> _parse_proxy('http://joe:password@proxy.example.com/')
-    ('http', 'joe', 'password', 'proxy.example.com')
-    >>> _parse_proxy('http://joe:password@proxy.example.com:3128')
-    ('http', 'joe', 'password', 'proxy.example.com:3128')
-
-    Everything after the authority is ignored:
-
-    >>> _parse_proxy('ftp://joe:password@proxy.example.com/rubbish:3128')
-    ('ftp', 'joe', 'password', 'proxy.example.com')
-
-    Test for no trailing '/' case:
-
-    >>> _parse_proxy('http://joe:password@proxy.example.com')
-    ('http', 'joe', 'password', 'proxy.example.com')
