Issue:
URLs must be fully qualified with protocol and path. Simple domain entries fail, causing confusion and failed test runs.
Current Behavior:
  • galaxus.de
    - FAILS
  • https://www.galaxus.de/
    - WORKS
Expected Behavior:
System should automatically normalize URLs:
  • Auto-add
    https://
    if no protocol specified
  • Handle
    www
    subdomain intelligently
  • Add trailing slash if needed
  • Validate and correct common URL formats
Use Cases:
  • Users copy domains from browser (often without protocol)
  • Quick test setup without worrying about URL format
  • Reduced friction in test session creation
Business Impact:
  • Improved user experience
  • Reduced setup errors
  • Fewer failed test sessions due to URL format issues
  • More intuitive for non-technical users
Technical Implementation:
  • URL validation and normalization on frontend
  • Helpful error messages if URL truly invalid
  • Preview/confirmation of normalized URL
Examples of URLs to Handle:
  • example.com
    https://example.com/
  • www.example.com
    https://www.example.com/
  • example.com/page
    https://example.com/page
  • http://example.com
    → Keep as-is (respect user's protocol choice)
