About gRPC-Web DevTools for QA
gRPC-Web DevTools for QA adds a dedicated panel to Chrome DevTools for inspecting and debugging gRPC-Web network requests — designed especially for QA engineers who need to replay and modify API calls without backend access.

KEY FEATURES
——————————————————
▸ Zero-config Capture
Automatically captures gRPC-Web requests as JSON as soon as the page loads. No setup, no proto file upload required.
▸ Repeat
Resend any captured request with one click. Authentication headers and session context are preserved automatically.
▸ Edit & Repeat
Modify request fields directly in the JSON editor and resend. No proto file needed — the app's own compiled types handle encoding behind the scenes.
▸ Proto File Upload (Optional)
Upload .proto files to enable response decoding, field type hints, and grpcurl command generation for terminal use.
▸ Request Templates
Save frequently used requests as templates and reload them across sessions.
▸ Load Testing
Send the same request repeatedly with configurable concurrency to simulate load.
▸ Streaming Visualizer
Inspect server-streaming RPC responses message by message in real time.
