request.header.Referer.url=
Test if the URL specified by the Referer header matches the specified criteria. The basic request.header.Referer.url= test attempts to match the complete Referer URL against a specified pattern. The pattern may include the scheme, host, port, path and query components of the URL. If any of these is not included in the pattern, then the corresponding component of the URL is not tested and can have any value.
Specific portions of the Referer URL can be tested by applying URL component modifiers to the trigger. In addition to component modifiers, optional test type modifiers can be used to change the way the pattern is matched.
This trigger is unavailable if the Referer header is missing, or if its value cannot be parsed as a URL. If the Referer header contains a relative URL, the requested URL is used as a base to form an absolute URL prior to testing.
