DNS

TLDs for Testing, & Documentation Examples

.test
.example
.invalid
.localhost

• ".test" is recommended for use in testing of current or new DNS related code.
• ".example" is recommended for use in documentation or as examples.
• ".invalid" is intended for use in online construction of domain names that are sure to be invalid and which it is obvious at a glance are invalid.

The ".localhost" TLD has traditionally been statically defined in host DNS implementations as having an A record pointing to the loop back IP address and is reserved for such use. Any other use would conflict with widely deployed code which assumes this use.
