So far, it has been a challenge for us working with HTML5 WebSocket to analyze the traffic going back and forth from the client to the server and from the server to the client. Without using packet sniffing tools like Wireshark or tcpdump the analysis and debugging of WebSocket messages is almost impossible.
But, recently, things are changing and it's now possible to see frame data along with arrows indicating the direction of the data is going to.
A WebKit patch has been created and you can use Chrome Canary to check the latest changes and start inspecting WebSocket frames. A huge advance for those working with HTML5 WebSocket.
There is also a step-by-step demo located here: http://blog.kaazing.com/2012/05/09/inspecting-websocket-traffic-with-chrome-developer-tools/
