WebSocket Tester

What is WebSocket?

WebSocket is a communication protocol that enables real-time data exchange between clients and servers. Unlike traditional HTTP requests, WebSocket provides a persistent connection that allows both parties to send data at any time. This makes it ideal for applications requiring instant updates, such as chat systems and live dashboards.

How WebSocket Works

WebSocket communication begins with a handshake that upgrades an HTTP connection to a WebSocket connection. Once established, both the client and server can send messages at any time, enabling real-time interactions.

What is a WebSocket Tester?

A WebSocket tester is a development tool that helps you establish and test WebSocket connections. Whether you're building a chat application or implementing real-time updates, this tool helps you verify your WebSocket implementation works correctly.

At this page, you can find a simple and efficient WebSocket tester that allows you to connect to any WebSocket server and exchange messages in real-time.
