Token Incrementor

Summary: PortSwigger's BApp Store lists Token Incrementor, a Burp Suite extension by Alex Lauerman (version 1.1, last updated 27 November 2020) that increments a parameter in each request for use with Active Scan. It replaces the placeholder text "IncrementMePlease" with "Incremented[RandomInt][Counter]", so a form such as a "create user" page that errors on duplicate usernames can still be actively scanned.

Why it matters: The extension exists because duplicate-value errors block active scanning of forms like user creation, and PortSwigger states it makes no warranty about the quality or usefulness of third-party extensions for any particular purpose.
