UI Changes on Repeater Tab

Luis | Last updated: Jun 08, 2017 10:14AM UTC

the top tab list in Burp Repeater (the multiple web requests) is terrible for when you have tens of tabs open. Please consider replacing the top tab with a left side list of requests that could be reordered (sort of like the Target tab, but without the tree-like structure). One other idea is to automatically name the requests based on the URI, so it is easier to identify. Instead of the actual tab names "1, 2, 3, 4", make them longer like "01 /api/login", "02 /logout.php", etc. Thanks!

Yes, the tabs can get a little unwieldy. When experimenting, I tend to use unnamed tabs. If I find an interesting behavior that I want to keep, I keep just one named tab for the behavior. With this workflow, I avoid having too many open at once. We do have a story on our work tracker to improve this. I've linked your suggestion to it, so the developers can review it again when the work is scheduled.
