Firebug is the most advanced free web analysis tool to date. While some of its functionality may resemble IE development toolbar (reviewed here), its scope, extra features and attention to details make it invaluable both to QA personal and web-designers. It’s fair to say that the only advantage IE development toolbar has over Firebug, is the fact that some websites only work with Internet Explorer, making it impossible to work with firebug (which runs on firefox).
