Quote from standard:

A request has an associated redirect mode, which is one of "follow", "error", and "manual". Unless stated otherwise, it is "follow".

A request has an associated redirect count. Unless stated otherwise, it is zero.

I don't think this is going to be possible to polyfill on top of XHR.

I don't think this is exposed in the API anyway. Those sentences have no bearing on window.fetch.

@dgraham Hi, can you reopen this issue?

https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#requestredirect

JS use:

fetch(new Request(url, {redirect: 'manual'}))

This is a nice addition to the Fetch API, but we won't be able to polyfill it with XMLHttpRequest. The browser navigates all redirects before returning a result, so there is no opportunity to interrupt the redirect flow.

If the response has an HTTP status code of 301, 302, 303, 307, or 308…Set the request URL to the URL conveyed by the Location header…transparently follow the redirect…

That's right but I think we can at least mimic redirect: error using responseURL attribute, (unfortunately) after redirection.

@saschanaz We could make a clumsy support for redirect: error, but that would only provide a partial and imperfect support for the redirect setting. I'd rather that we don't support this at all in the polyfill.

@mislav That's reasonable, thanks :)

Is this difference from the standard documented anywhere?

@axelson I don't think so. You're welcome to add it to our documentation in the "gh-pages" branch seen here when published.

tl;dr
- This commit add support for fetch.
- pretender swap native fetch related API if exists
- pretender.shutdown() restore native fetch related API
- doesn't work with AbortController

Pretender has been working well with xhr, but doesn't handle fetch.
It's been 2 years since @rwjblue first open the
[issue](pretenderjs#60) for fetch
support. So people don't need to do extra work to polyfill for testing.

Include a fetch ponyfill and swap the native fetch during pretender
creation, then restore them when `shutdown`. Since fetch polyfill uses
xhr behind the scene, pretender will "just work".

Per Yetch homepage, the supplement set of yetch impl and spec include:
- Inability to [set the redirect mode](JakeChampion/fetch#137)
- Inability to [change the cache directive](JakeChampion/fetch#438 (comment))
- Inability to [disable same-origin cookies](JakeChampion/fetch#56 (comment))

- `xhr.abort()` first set state to done, finally response to a [network error](https://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/#the-abort()-method);
- [fetch](https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#aborting-ongoing-activities) will reject promise with a new "AbortError" DOMException.

For `fake_xml_http_request` impl, the request is resolved once its state is changed to `DONE` so the `reject` is not cathed.

So the senario happens in pretender is:
1. state chagne to `DONE`, trigger resolve request
2. abort, trigger reject
3. xhr.onerror, trigger reject

The first resolve wins, error thus not rejected but an empty request is resolved.

Though polyfilled by xhr, fetch returns a Promise and is asynchronous by
nature.

Motivation
------
Pretender has been working well with xhr, but doesn't handle fetch.
It's been 2 years since @rwjblue first open the
[issue](pretenderjs#60) for fetch
support. So people don't need to do extra work to polyfill for testing.

Changes
------
Include a fetch ponyfill and swap the native fetch during pretender
creation, then restore them when `shutdown`. Since fetch polyfill uses
xhr behind the scene, pretender should "just work".

Caveats
------
1. The supplement set of yetch impl and spec includes (not complete):
- Inability to [set the redirect mode](JakeChampion/fetch#137)
- Inability to [change the cache directive](JakeChampion/fetch#438 (comment))
- Inability to [disable same-origin cookies](JakeChampion/fetch#56 (comment))

2. Abort
- `xhr.abort()` first set state to done, finally response to a [network error](https://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/#the-abort()-method);
- [fetch](https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#aborting-ongoing-activities) will reject promise with a new "AbortError" DOMException.

As implemented in `fake_xml_http_request`, the request is resolved once its
state is changed to `DONE`.
So the senario happens in pretender is:

  2). abort, trigger reject
