Summary

PLEASE NOTE: This extension is designed to work with the HttpWatch software on Windows (see www.httpwatch.com). It is not intended to be a stand-alone Edge extension.

Supports multi-page debugging by grouping requests by page
Supports automatic recording and logging of network traffic in each Edge 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
