Hi there,

We plan on enabling followRedirect by default behavior in 1.2.0.  
We also plan on enabling by default the new automatic referer computation (see [https://github.com/excilys/gatling/issues/432](https://github.com/excilys/gatling/issues/432)).

Speak now or forever hold your peace!

Cheers,

Stephane

Would it then be possible to disable the followRedirect ?

cheers

Hi Nicolas,

Of course 😉

The option should be the opposite: followRedirect =\> noFollowRedirect or something like that 😉

Hi guys,

Enabling automatic referer by default would be a very usefull option, i’m eager to test this feature.
