Usage Alternatif

• Write your Chrome DevTools project, using extra long pauses between each step.
• Then, use this proxy to find out the event you should wait for instead of static delay.

know issues

Once generated, you may need to re-order and wait for event lines. This generator cannot predict event timing by listening only to the Chrome DevTools Protocol Session.
