Create virual host in apache

Step 1) C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\ Open the “hosts” file :

127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 test.com
127.0.0.1 example.com

Step 2) xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf

DocumentRoot C:/xampp/htdocs/test/
ServerName www.test.com

DocumentRoot C:/xampp/htdocs/example/
ServerName www.example.com

Step 3) C:\xampp\apache\conf\httpd.conf.

Scroll down to the Supplemental configuration section at the end, and locate the following section (around line 500),

Remove the # from the beginning of the second line so the section now looks like this:

#Virtual hosts
Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

Step 4) Restart XAMPP and now run in your browser :

www.example.com or www.test.com
