How to manipulate URL while executing Test cafe scripts

Question

I tried executing my TestCafe scripts using command prompt. While executing, test cafe starts execution by taking local IP, port number and session ID along side the URL. I want my scripts to execute directly on the URL without the local host IP, port and other details. Refer attached screenshot when I executed my scripts on Test Cafe. Screenshot of test cafe script with local host IP, port

Attached is the code for test case which was executed on Test Cafe.

import { Selector } from 'testcafe';
import { Crypto } from 'testcafe';
var faker = require('faker');
function randomString(size) {  
    return crt
    .randomBytes(size)
    .toString('hex')
    .slice(0, size)
};

function numberGen(len) {       //Function to Generate random number; 
length of number = value specified in 'len'
 //  var genNum= Math.floor(Math.pow(10, len)*Math.random()).toString()
  var text = "";
    var charset = "0123456789";
    for( var i=0; i < len; i++ ) {
    text += charset.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * charset.length));}
    return text;
};
 const dataSet = require('./dataIUT.json');
const crt   = require('crypto')
var randomBankAccName = faker.random.alphaNumeric(6)+"Bank";
var AccountNumber = numberGen(9)
var AccountName = "AccName_"+faker.random.alphaNumeric(4)
fixture `CreateBankAccount`
.page `https://dev-assure-claims.dxc-rmcl.com/riskmasterux/#/login? 
clientId=3f28130450c00018`
.beforeEach(t => t.resizeWindow(1200, 1100));

dataSet.forEach(data => {    
test('CreateBankAccount', async t => {


//==================Login Code With JSON Starts================================       
    await t
    .maximizeWindow()
    .typeText(Selector('#username'), data.Username)
    .pressKey('tab')
    .typeText(Selector('#login-password'), data.Password)
    .pressKey('enter')
    .click(Selector('[ng-model="dsnSelected"]'))
    .click(Selector('[role="option"]').find('span').withText(data.DSN))
    .click(Selector('[ng-model="zoneSelected"]'))
    .click(Selector('[role="option"]').find('a').withText('Claims'))
    .click(Selector('#loginbox').find('button').withText('Continue'))
    .wait(1000)
//==================Login Code With JSON Ends================================    

//==================Code to Create Bank Account Starts ================================    

    .click(Selector('#menuBar').find('a').withText('Funds').nth(0))
    .click(Selector('#menu_FundsRoot').find('a').withText('Bank Account'))

    .switchToIframe(Selector('[id^="bankaccount"]'))
    .wait(1000)
    //var BankAccount = "BA_"+randomString(4).toUpperCase()
    //await t
    .click(Selector('#lookup_banklastname'))
    .typeText(Selector('#lookup_banklastname'), randomBankAccName).setTestSpeed(0.6).pressKey('tab')
    //.click(Selector('#accountnumber'))         
    .typeText(Selector('#accountnumber'), AccountNumber).setTestSpeed(0.6)
    .pressKey('tab')           
    .click(Selector('#accountname')).typeText(Selector('#accountname'), AccountName).setTestSpeed(0.6)
    .pressKey("tab")
    .click(Selector('#Save').find('i').withText('save'))
//==================Code to Create Bank Account Endss==================================

//========================Click to RHS Child's Add button Starts=========================
    const ele1 = Selector('[class="row main_menu right-panel-bg-hover"]').find('i').withText('add').with({ visibilityCheck: true }) // RHS Menu is available
    await t.expect(ele1.exists).ok('', { timeout: 20000 })
    .click(ele1)
//========================Click to RHS Child's Add button Ends=========================

//==========================Logout Code Starts==========================================
    .switchToMainWindow()
    .click(Selector('#morebtn').find('i').withText('more_vert'))
    

.click(Selector('#menu_othersMenu').find('a').withText('exit_to_appLogout'))
     .click(Selector('#btnRoll').find('i').withText('done'));
//===========================Logout Code Ends========================================

});});

Could you supply your test code? – Martin H. May 06 '21 at 21:13 — Martin H., May 06 '21 at 21:13

What issues is having the tests "run" on localhost causing you? What exactly are you trying to solve for?

What you're seeing is TestCafe communicating with the local TestCafe server. Looking at the docs, it isn't possible to have TestCafe communicate with a device that isn't your current machine, so I don't think what you want to achieve is possible.

I wanted to scan the requests through test cafe scripts on burp tool to achieve security testing – Shruti Singhal May 11 '21 at 14:02
You can use Testcafe's intercept to log all HTTP requests: https://testcafe.io/documentation/402842/guides/advanced-guides/intercept-http-requests. You could then use the output from that to run them through burp, I believe. I haven't used burp so I'm not entirely sure on that. – agoff May 11 '21 at 17:44
