October 13, 2008 - A New Version of HttpWatch - 6.0

The good folks at Simtec have released a new version of one of the tools in my toolbox - HttpWatch.

The biggest news is that HttpWatch now supports Firefox as well as Internet Explorer!

Here's the complete list of new features:

• HttpWatch now supports Firefox 2.0 and 3.0 on Windows as well as IE 6, 7 and 8 Beta 2
• Added a Properties window that can opened or closed from the View menu. It displays information about the log including browser type, time zone and operating system version
• A comment can be assigned to a log file using the Properties window or through the automation interface
• The values shown in the Summary window's Timings tab can now be accessed through the automation interface.
• Started times can now be displayed as local time, GMT or as an offset from the start of the log
• The Timings tab in the Summary window now provides minimum, maximum, average and total for each type of timing (e.g. DNS Lookup, Connect, etc)
• Visual Studio style tabs are displayed in HttpWatch Studio for each log file making it easier to switch between files
• The automation interface has been updated to support Firefox, timing summaries and log properties
• There is now a FireWatir automation sample
