PLEASE NOTE: This extension is designed to work with the HttpWatch software version 11 & 12 on Windows (see www.httpwatch.com). It is not intended to be a stand-alone Chrome extension.
HttpWatch supports many additional features compared to the built-in DevTools network panel:
- Supports multi-page debugging by grouping requests by page
- Supports automatic recording and logging of network traffic in each Chrome tab without additional user intervention
- Displays warnings about well know performance and security issues, e.g. ineffective cache settings
- Advanced Find and Filter functions make it easier to locate requests or content
- Automatically masks out passwords in POST form data so that they are not recorded in HWL or HAR files
- Built in summaries of page level statistics, e.g. bytes downloaded, network round trips, etc
- Add comments to requests to help subsequent analysis of log files
- Directly email HWL or HAR files from within the tool
Currently the tool is Windows only and requires a separate download from https://www.httpwatch.com to copmplete the installation once the Chrome Extension is installed.
HttpWatch acts as an in-browser HTTP sniffer and displays detailed information about HTTP(S) requests generated by Chrome. This information includes:
- HTTP headers
- HTTP cookies
- Status codes and errors
- Query Strings
- POST Data
- Content - image, textual and binary
- Timings
