t.request() not working with proxyless

[BenDriesen]

What is your Scenario?

When sending api requests with the experimental proxyless feature, the test directly fails with a type error:

TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'proxy')

When proxyless is disabled, this works fine

What is the Current behavior?

Test fails with TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'proxy')

What is the Expected behavior?

API request is executed similarly as without proxyless

What is your public website URL? (or attach your complete example)

https://google.com

What is your TestCafe test code?

test('Request google page', async t => { const res = await t.request('https://google.com') })

Your complete configuration file

{ "experimentalProxyless": true }

Your complete test report

` ✖ Request google page

1) TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'proxy')`

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a request with t.request() and execute the request without the proxyless setting enabled, the test runs fine
2. Now run the same test with --experimental-proxyless. The test now fails with a type error

Hi @BenDriesen,

Support for the t.request action was implemented in https://github.com/DevExpress/testcafe/pull/7504. This feature will be available in the next release.
