Static IP Addresses
You can run configure DebugBear to only run tests from a limited number of IP addresses. For example, this allows you to:
- Ensure DebugBear doesn't get blocked as a bot by your server
- Exclude DebugBear from your Google Analytics data
How to enable fixed IP addresses
You can enable and view fixed IPs addresses in your Account settings.
The page then shows the IP addresses that are used to run your tests.
Trade-offs
Enabling fixed IPs reduces the number of servers that can run your tests, and it may take longer for tests to finish.
Alternatively, you can also check if the user agent contains DebugBear
or a custom string configured by you.
