Answer from AI
Wireshark is a powerful network traffic analysis tool that allows capturing and detailed examination of data packets passing through a network interface.
Typical usage of Wireshark includes:
- Capturing traffic to diagnose network or application issues.
- Analyzing protocols (HTTP, TCP, UDP, DNS, etc.) to understand network interactions.
- Searching for errors, delays, packet losses.
- Security checks and detecting suspicious activity.
For example, a QA engineer might use Wireshark to verify that a mobile application correctly sends requests to the server and receives expected responses, as well as to identify network problems affecting the application's performance.
