Monitoring HTTP requests and WebSockets in Netbeans

Question

I am writing a HTTP and WebSocket client in Java to connect to any http server.

I wrote something similar in js before and was able to use the network tab of the developer tools in firefox and chrome to see what HTTP requests were sent and what Websocket messages were exchanged.

My question is: is there any tool or plugin for Netbeans to see these same requests and messages?

Answer 1

Netbeans comes with an HTTP Monitor which you can access via Window -> HTTP Monitor.
