What you'll learn

All non-trivial web applications use a variety of complex techniques that allow users to interact with and authenticate themselves with your app using HTTP and REST. But how do you develop, analyze, and troubleshoot the network requests applications make? In this course, Fiddler 5 Classic Fundamentals, you’ll learn to develop and debug applications by observing and generating web traffic using Fiddler. First, you’ll explore observing traffic with Fiddler, using the Inspector Panel to identify and report bugs. Next, you’ll discover HTTPS Network traffic, and how to use Fiddler to decrypt and analyze it, allowing debugging of many more applications. Finally, you’ll learn how to generate network traffic, allowing Fiddler to be used to develop applications and validate use cases. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Fiddler needed to observe, generate, and analyze basic traffic, and integrate with more advanced fiddler workflows with minimal training.
