As an user who develops a (complex) web monitoring scenario, I would like an interactive editor for scenarios that allows me to create and modify steps with an immediate way to (re)play either the whole scenario or single/multiple steps.
The reason for this requirement is that right now developing web scenarios against e.g. CMSes or other high-complexity systems is very time consuming and error-prone, as one has to verify if a change works by:
- doing the change
- saving the step
- saving the scenario
- wait for the next run of the scenario (and if the scenario is running on a proxy, either wait for the 1h cache expiry or manually refreshing it with `zabbix_proxy -R config_cache_reload`)
- hoping that the change worked
- if not, either manually debug it using packet inspection or whatever logging mechanism the target system has, or by wading through hundreds of megabytes of TRACE level logs
- re-open the scenario
- re-opening the step
An interactive web UI editor can cut the time needed for verification of a change from 5-10 minutes to mere seconds.
