My Opinion on XRAY:

XRAY bookmarklet is designed to analyze one element at a time and is pretty good at it. It is very simple and easy to use. It works separately for different tabs. If you are testing any element on one tab, you can still keep surfing on other tabs normally.

It works for all commonly used browsers. Being just a bookmarklet, you don’t need to install it and easily add it to any browser.
