• [X] I confirm the Frequently Asked Questions didn't contain the answer to my issue

Environment check

Reproduction repository

https://github.com/islazh/msw-redirection-bug-repro

Reproduction steps

Steps to reproduce

• run nvm use
• run corepack enable
• run pnpm install
• run pnpm test

Current behavior

The requests do not automatically "follow" the redirect and a 302 is returned in the response with Location header. The test fails as a result.

Expected behavior

The requests should "follow" the redirect and progress to /redirected. The response status should be 200 with whatever HTML is returned.

Hi, @islazh. Thanks for reporting this.

Could you please check how is your issue different from #2177? I know you are not using Axios, but I suspect the root cause for this behavior is the same. Thanks.
