Intern / Leadfoot: How to get HTTP status code

Question

How can I determine the HTTP status after moving to some page using intern?

this.remote.get('http://google.de') // status 200
this.remote.get('http://google.de/alsdflasdf') // 404 Not Found

Answer 1

So here's the hack..Use BrowserMob proxy and send your requests via BrowserMob Proxy and these proxy will give you all the relevant status codes you wish to have.
Here is a sample of code that uses browsermob proxy to save last response code to a variable:

    int lastResponseCode;

    ProxyServer server = new ProxyServer(8888);
    server.start();

    server.addResponseInterceptor(new HttpResponseInterceptor() {
      @Override
      public void process(HttpResponse response, HttpContext context) throws HttpException,
IOException {
        lastResponseCode = response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
      }
    });

    DesiredCapabilities caps = new DesiredCapabilities();
    caps.setCapability(CapabilityType.PROXY, server.seleniumProxy());
    WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(caps);

And the reason why status codes will never be supported in selenium Webdriver is here: https://github.com/seleniumhq/selenium-google-code-issue-archive/issues/141
