Tim will present his HTTP Toolkit and demonstrate how intercepting network calls can help with debugging and testing of your applications.

Topics

Hacking Ruby for fun, profit, and HTTPS interception

HTTP Toolkit (https://httptoolkit.tech/) is an open-source HTTP(S) debugging tool that can automatically capture and/or rewrite all HTTP(S) traffic from your Ruby code, for debugging & testing.

That sounds a lot like magic. In this talk, we'll look at how it really works: how HTTP Toolkit can automatically man-in-the-middle all your requests, with zero code changes, no admin permissions, and no new dependencies. We'll learn a bit about how HTTP interception works, see why this is useful, and then explore how HTTP Toolkit injects into the Ruby's own internals to make this magic happen.
