Hi all,

It’s possible to use **ember mirage** only for tests? Currently I set another namespace variable in test environment.

```
http://localhost:4202/tokens >>> Called in the running application
http://localhost:4202/test/tokens >>> Namespace "/test" is set for test environment only

```

After installing ember-cli-mirage **ALL** requests are redirected by **ember mirage**. For our application we have real requests to a gateway. We only need **ember mirage** for testing. Is this possible?

Best regards, Mario

Check the official documentation [link](http://www.ember-cli-mirage.com/docs/v0.3.x/configuration/#environment-options)

Basically you can specify in the `environment.js` when do you want `ember-cli-mirage` to be enabled:

example:

```auto
if (environment === 'production') {
  ENV['ember-cli-mirage'] = {
    enabled: true
  };
}

```

Ok… still not all fine. 🙂

In my environment “development” ( in my Application ) the defined mirage rules will used correctly. But in my acceptance test mirage writes an error:

```
'Mirage: Your Ember app tried to POST \'http://localhost:4202/tokens\',\n but there was no route defined to handle this request.\n Define a route the at matches this path in your\n mirage/config.js file. Did you forget to add your namespace?' { description: 'Mirage: undefined', message: 'Mirage: Your Ember app tried to POST 'http://localhost:4202/tokens\',\n but there was no route defined to handle this request.\n Define a route that matches this path in your\n mirage/config.js file. Did you forget to add your namespace?', name: 'Error', stack: 'Mirage: Error: Your Ember app tried to POST \'http://localhost:4202/tokens\',\n but there was no route defined to handle this request.\n D efine a route that matches this path in your\n mirage/config.js file. Did you forget to add your namespace?\n at new MirageError (http://localhost:4203/a ssets/vendor.js:132407:21)\n at assert http://localhost:4203/assets/vendor.js:132394:13)\n at Pretender.unhandledRequest (http://localhost:4203/assets/vendor [Press ENTER to run tests; q to quit; p to pause]

```

Currently in both use cases I used no different namespace. ( both the same ) In the app all is fine. In the test mirage do not find my defined mirage routes.

Any ideas?

**[EDIT]** In my acceptance test there is this route definition set on first line:

```
server.post('/tokens', () => {
    return new Mirage.Response(200, {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
        'Accept': 'application/json',
        'authentication-token': generateToken()
    }, {});
});

```

Are you sure that’s the only test that access to that route? In the documentation says that the handler `server.post` only works for that specific test:

> This route handler definition is only in effect for the duration of this test, so as soon as it’s over any handler you have defined for POST to /questions in your config.js file will be used again.

Problem solved. The problem was the host. Mirge do not tells me in the log whether the host is set relative or absolute.

After setting the host in the mirage/config.js, the test could use the defined route too. My test route definition in my test was removed before…
