Ultimately, for me it's the [benchmarks I run](/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/%C2%B5Block-vs.-others:-Blocking-ads,-trackers,-malwares) to report blocking power which tells the real story. The badge is really not a good way to assess blocking power of an extension, you could well end up concluding the opposite of what is really happening.
If you don't want to run a benchmark, I have this [little online tool](http://raymondhill.net/httpsb/har-parser.html) with which you can find out the requests which were **not** prevented from leaving your browser. To use it, open the dev console for the page for which you want a report, and go to the _Network_ tab.

Clear the browser cache by right-clicking somewhere in the _Network_ tab console. Force a reload of the web page, then right-click in the _Network_ tab console, and select _"Copy all as HAR"_. Then paste the result in the text area of [this online tool](http://raymondhill.net/httpsb/har-parser.html), and click _Parse_. You will be shown the hostnames which were hit by the browser for the particular page you loaded.
