Abstract:
Systems and methods for capturing and correlating multiple sources of debugging information relating to a network resource and a client device via a browser extension are provided. A browser extension integrated within a browser running on a client device, receives a request to initiate capturing of debugging information relating to a potential bug associated with a network resource with which an end user is interacting via the browser, and in response to the first request, starts capturing the debugging information from multiple sources and correlates the multiple sources to facilitate time-synchronized playback. On receipt of a second request, the browser extension stop capturing debugging information, and creates a single compressed file containing the debugging information collected from the multiple sources. The single compressed file may then be shared with a second device, which can playback the correlated debugging information.
