Description

Almost every time I queue I get flooded with requests that I don't care about. These are sometimes from other tabs and sometimes unwanted requests from the same app you're testing. An intercepting system based on filters would be really helpful.

Use cases

Few questions:

  • Do you want the filters do be purely visual or do you want automated actions for ignored requests (aka keep them in queue vs drop or forward automatically)
  • Would you prefer different filters for responses and requests or something unified for both (since we are adding response interception soon)

  • I definitely want the unwanted requests to be dropped/forwarded automatically
  • I would like to have separately configurable filters for responses

A good (and maybe simpler) start would be to be able to only intercept requests that are in scope.

Yes we are reworking the intercept page soon and we will be able to add scopes once that is done.
