Dev Tools: Free Plugin

Make building, testing, and debugging in Gravity Forms fast, easy, and… fun?

Gravity Forms Dev Tools consolidates the utilities you reach for when you’re building or troubleshooting forms: preview tools, debugging visibility, test data generation, and workflow shortcuts, packed into one plugin.

What can you do with Dev Tools?

• Preview your forms styled on the frontend with advanced testing controls
• Jump to any form or plugin instantly with WordPress admin bar shortcuts
• Generate dummy entries in bulk for stress-testing and QA
• Safely validate payment flows with a dummy payment gateway
• View logs and performance insights with Query Monitor
• Automatically name fields and choices for rapid form building

Preview forms on your frontend

Preview forms on the frontend in your styling and theme and get developer-friendly controls like:

• Toggle AJAX on/off
• Temporarily bypass required fields for faster testing
• Reveal hidden fields
• Collapse multi-page forms into a single page view
• And more tools designed for quick iteration

Jump to forms and plugins from anywhere

Dev Tools gives you one click access to forms and plugins right from your WordPress admin bar, plus the ability to mange, activate, deactivate, export, and more.

Bulk dummy entry generator

Generate large volumes of realistic test submissions in seconds. Perfect for:

• Testing notifications and feeds
• Load-testing reports and exports
• Validating conditional logic and calculations

Safely simulate test payments

Simulate payment flows without running live transactions using dummy payment gateways. Ideal for testing:

• Payment-based conditional logic
• Purchase workflows
• Feed processing behavior

Integrate with Query Monitor

Dev Tools integrates Gravity Forms directly into Query Monitor, a debugging tools panel, to show you what’s happening under the hood with every submission.

Inside Query Monitor, you can:

• See render time, field count, and AJAX status
• Access Gravity Forms logs immediately after submission
• Populate and clear fields automatically
• Easily identify forms in the page

Plus, logs from Gravity Forms core and add-ons are routed automatically, even if logging is disabled in the main settings.

Faster form building helpers

• Automatic naming for new fields and choices (cleaner builds, less manual cleanup)
• Quick field deletion in the editor to speed up prototyping and iteration

Everything in one place

Access all tools at any time from the Dev Tools settings. Activate what you need and disable what you don’t in just a few clicks.
