For DNS records, add them in /etc/hosts.Then, Dnsmasq will answer to queries from clients.
By the way, when Dnsmasq is running, fixed value "127.0.0.1" is added in /etc/resolv.conf and also the value of "dns-nameservers" in /etc/network/interfaces is added and managed in /var/run/dnsmasq/resolv.conf.
