## About the product

RolesTab is a free, open-source desktop mini-browser for developers, QA engineers, product teams, and support teams who need to test the same web application as multiple user roles at the same time.

It focuses on **role-based session isolation** so teams can validate permissions, dashboards, and workflows without repeatedly logging out and back in. Key capabilities include:

- **Isolated role sessions**: Maps each role profile to a separate persistent Electron session partition, keeping **cookies, localStorage, IndexedDB, cache, and authentication state** isolated per role.
- **Project workspaces**: Creates projects for different applications, environments, or tasks, each with its own base URL and set of roles.
- **Reusable role profiles**: Defines roles such as Admin, Customer, Support, QA (or custom roles) and opens each role in its own isolated tab.
- **Testing utilities**: Restores recent tabs and visited URLs, provides session controls to clear one role or all sessions, supports **JSON import/export** for project configs, and includes developer controls like navigation, reload, copy URL, open in an external browser, and **DevTools**.

Available on **Windows, macOS, and Linux** via installers from GitHub Releases. It supports **localhost** URLs for local development testing, and stores project and session data locally with no account requirement.

It suits **software development and QA teams**, technical product teams, and customer support teams that need parallel multi-role testing for access control and multi-tenant scenarios.

Notable for African and global engineering teams, it offers a practical way to verify multi-role behavior on shared or low-resource devices without extra browser profiles, and its open-source GitHub distribution (releases, changelog, issues, license) makes evaluation and internal adoption straightforward.
