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.
