About QA Settings
QA Settings injects Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) overrides into tabs you
choose — without opening DevTools. Switch timezone/locale, throttle the
network, force dark mode, auto-grant permissions, and more, all from a single
toolbar toggle.
Use cases
- Verify timezone/locale-sensitive UI across UTC, Europe/London, Asia/Tokyo…
- Reproduce slow-network, offline, or low-CPU bugs without external tools
- Test responsive layouts, dark mode, color-blindness filters
- Auto-accept camera/mic/geolocation prompts in QA flows
- Reproduce first-visit state by bulk-clearing storage + cookies (domain-wide)
Features
CLIENT — signals the browser tells the site about the user
- Timezone override (100+ IANA presets + free text)
- Locale override (navigator.language + Intl.* formats)
- Geolocation override (lat/lng/accuracy + 30 city presets + "use current")
- User-Agent override (preset UAs + custom string)
NETWORK
- Network throttling (Offline/Slow3G/Fast3G/Slow4G/Fast4G/WiFi + custom)
- Disable HTTP cache
- Block URL patterns (simulate missing GA/ads/specific APIs)
- Inject request headers (auth tokens, A/B flags)
- Set cookies — DevTools Application panel fields exactly
(name/value/domain/path/expires/httpOnly/secure/sameSite)
RENDERING
- Color scheme: force prefers-color-scheme light/dark
- Device emulation: viewport/DPR/mobile flag + 9 device presets
- CPU throttling: slowdown multiplier
- Vision deficiency: color-blind/blur filters for accessibility QA
PERMISSIONS & STATE
- Auto-grant site permissions (camera/mic/notifications/geolocation/…)
- Force navigator.idleDetector state (active/idle/locked)
- Clear origin storage + domain-tree cookies (reproduce first-visit / logout)
GENERAL
- Domain scope — apply only to tabs matching include/exclude glob or regex patterns
- Presets — save feature combos ("Payment QA", "Mobile offline", …) + one-click switch
- Import/Export settings as JSON — share across team
Privacy
All settings stay in chrome.storage.local on your device. No network
requests, no telemetry, no analytics.
Permissions
- debugger — required to send CDP Emulation/Network/Browser/Storage commands
- storage — persist your toggle state locally
- tabs — detect tab navigation to re-apply overrides
- cookies — domain-tree cookie cleanup (e.g. logout a whole site)
- host_permissions <all_urls> — CDP attach needs a host target; you choose
which tabs via Domain Scope
Localization
UI available in 10 languages: English, 한국어, 中文, Español, 日本語,
Deutsch, Français, Português, Русский. Auto-detects browser locale by default.
