I have a domain test.dev bound to 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts. How can I bind all the subdomains, e.g. any.th.ing.test.dev to 127.0.0.1 as well?

This is actually dead-simple with dnsmasq:

# install dnsmasq

sudo apt-get install dnsmasq

# map anything ending in .dev to 127.0.0.1

echo address=/dev/127.0.0.1 | sudo tee /etc/dnsmasq.d/dev

# restart to make it read new config

sudo service dnsmasq restart

# verify it's working

host gsdf.gsd.fg.sdf.g.dev                               

# gsdf.gsd.fg.sdf.g.dev has address 127.0.0.1
