Hi,

Can WebTest verify components of the URL, such as server name or URI?

Seems like the answer is no, even using some fancy XPath construction; =
but I thought the question worth asking.

The purpose of such a test would be to verify that a particular page =
redirects you to another page, on the same or a different server.
