CA App Synthetic Monitor

Issue/Introduction



Is it possible to monitor a website that is suppose to go to a 404 page? We have a website that we still want to monitor to make sure users can technically hit the site but it is suppose to go to a 404 page. Is it possible to do this with a full page monitor check? 

Environment

Release:
Component: WMAPP

Resolution

This is not possible with a Full Page Monitor.  An HTTP error (non-200 response code) is always considered as a failure with a Full Page Monitor, an HTTP Monitor and an HTTPS Monitor. 

However, you can use a Script Monitor (Jmeter or Firefox) and test for the 404 error code and have that return 200 (OK) instead.
