Zfdebug

ZFDebug is a plugin for the Zend Framework. It contains useful debugging information in a small panel at the bottom of each page. Prior to version 1.5, it was called Scienta ZF Debug Bar.



Time, memory and the number of database queries are visible at a glance. In addition, there is information about the processed (included) files, the list of available variable templates (view) and SQL queries are displayed in a separate panel (in the figure, the database is configured with 2 adapters).
