Host Mapping - daid.mcneil - 08-27-2015 09:38 PM
Hello,
I am trying to perform a test with some host mapping setup but I am having some issues. Having searched the forums I think I should be using the Chromium command line switch host-rules but I am not entirely sure. For example the setup I am using is:
URL: http://www.example.com
Browser: Chrome Browser
Advanced Settings - Chrome Tab:
Command-line: --host-rules="MAP http://www.example.com http://www.otherexample.com"
Each time I try to run the test I receive the same error message:
"Invalid command-line option: "www.otherexample.com""
Have I missed something in syntax or similar in the above?
Is there another method I should be using to perform host mapping?
Any input would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Are you trying to access site "www.example.com" with the DNS of "www.otherexample.com"? If so, you can just use a scripted test by forcing the DNS of http://www.example.com to http://www.otherexample.com.
setDNSName http://www.example.com http://www.otherexample.com
navigate http://www.example.com
