Does .test exist?

Not really. No — .test is permanently reserved for testing and will never resolve on the public internet.

The full story

RFC 6761 sets aside .test for private testing environments — the domain equivalent of a sandbox. Developers use name.test in local dev setups precisely because it's guaranteed never to become a real, resolving TLD.

Wondering about another extension? Every real TLD is in the directory.
