Description webkit-bugzilla 2019-01-24 14:49:09 PST 
In my local web development I'm using the .test tld but safari is determined to search the web instead of loading the webpage
As a work around I can use the .local or .localhost tlds (note I used to use .dev before google acquired it)

Is this internet behaviour? I think the .test domain for local development is a perfect example for what I assume it's intended use is

The decision whether the text entered into smart address bar is a URL or text to search for is made by Safari, not WebKit. Please file a bug via <https://bugreport.apple.com>
