Testing Mirage 2:

Since Mirage's features for Mobile Browser optimization are triggered based on high latency\poor network connections, you can test the features by making a request to your domain using a mobile user-agent stringand one of the following flags with your domain in your mobile browser:


EXAMPLE.COM/?forcepreload

EXAMPLE.COM/?forcepreloadonly  (this flag will run the pre-loader only and serve degraded images on the page)


**Note: Be sure to replace EXAMPLE.COM with your domain name

 

Here is an example where Mirage 2 is triggered by a ?forcepreloadonly flag (note the image degradation as a sign that the feature is working):
