L&D series: Manual testing helper with Chrome
Learning and Development chapter 12.
Such a nice illustration image, isn’t it? :D
We don’t want to be considered incompetent by anyone, do we? These are things we could use to help us to perform manual testing in a better way. For the lazy one, this can help us only by using the Chrome browser.
User Agent
As a manual tester, sometimes we need to change the user agent to do a testing. We can use 3rd party tools or use the browser’s built-in functions.
ModHeader
Network Conditions
Network Throttling
Wonder how your application is on a slow internet speed? Try this one.
Toggle Device Toolbar
This will simulate application in mobile view version.
Exploratory Test
A lot of manual tester is doing an exploratory testing (including me). Except this one (https://www.getxray.app/exploratory-testing-app/) we can also use Chrome extension.
Preserve Log
Do you often debug the log error by yourself? This is very useful to investigate the log without clearing the history on every page load because error that show up just before the page is unloaded is troublesome, right?
Clear Cookies
This can be useful when testing or debugging third party plugins.
Window Resizer
This extension is to simulate how our application’s look in different resolution.
Multi login to any website
We can open one website (let’s say Medium) in one browser with multiple user login.
