Test 3 URL Shortener fails - "redirected is not implemented yet" bug - requesting manual review

[atulcoder27]

Hi,

I have completed the URL Shortener Microservice project but test 3
fails due to a known bug in freeCodeCamp’s test runner
(dom-test-evaluator.js throws “redirected is not implemented yet”).

My working project:

• Live URL: https://url-shortener-qh66.onrender.com
• GitHub: GitHub - atuljha-tech/URL-Shortener-Microservice · GitHub

Evidence it works:

• POST /api/shorturl returns correct JSON with original_url and short_url
• GET /api/shorturl/1 correctly returns HTTP 302 redirect to original URL
• Tests 1, 2, and 4 all pass

This bug has been reported by many users since February 2026:

Can I please get manual credit or has this bug been fixed?

Thank you
