How to know if there has been a redirection or not ?

[ecolinet]

Hi, When I use :

[Options]
location: true

I want to know if a redirection has occured or not.

Is it possible to have a redirection counter ?

In my case url is not enought because the redirection bring me back the the original url and asserting for a 200 status code doesn't say if there has been a redirection or not.

Thanks

Thanks for your suggestion. we could add a query redirections to get all the redirections that had occured, and then use our count filter.

Something like that.

[Asserts]
redirections count > 0

As we speak of "HTTP redirects", I will prefer redirects as noun of the query:

[Asserts]
redirects count > 0

Extract from https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Redirections

HTTP has a special kind of response, called a HTTP redirect, for this operation.
