Hi, You can see what the extension does in the description: "This extension attempts to determine how long it takes for a session to timeout at the server. It issues the same request multiple times with increasing delays until a configured string appears in the response." To use it, simply select a request > right-click > Extensions > Test for Session Timeout > Configure the timeout and then select 'START TEST'
