Overview

The awesome cache-busting extension. Perfect for bypassing proxy and load balancer caches for development and testing purposes.

Cachebuster adds a query parameter to all HTTP requests made by your browser to bypass load balancer/proxy caches. For example, an HTTP request to URL http://yasa.gs/ will actually be made to the URL http://yasa.gs/?cachebusterTimestamp=1383291810660. Especially useful in scenarios where manual QA for web apps is performed in a corporate environment, which usually feature heavy caching via load balancers or proxies. Without this extension, testers might not see the latest changes.

While Chrome's own developer tools didn't bust the cache, this extension did. Recommend it.

Works well. It cachebusts all the assets too, so all CSS/JS files are refreshed.
