How to debug when using Google Analytics?

I am using Google Analytics debugger tool for Chrome.

Actually what I want is to see if request are being made and then see my custom variables in Google Analytics, I am coding blindly.

I am trying this in localhost:

_gaq.push(['_setCustomVar', 1, 'city', 'delhi', 3]);
_gaq.push processing "_setCustomVar" for args: "[1,city,delhi,3]":  ga_debug.js:18
0

_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
_gaq.push processing "_trackPageview" for args: "[]":  ga_debug.js:18
Track Pageview ga_debug.js:18
Tracking beacon sent!

I also tried with this before setting and sending variable:

_gaq.push(['_setDomainName', 'none']);
_gaq.push processing "_setDomainName" for args: "[none]":  ga_debug.js:18
0

But in the moment I don't see any custom variable in my account page, do they take time to appear?, how long?

You should be passing an an array to _gaq.push -- you're missing the []s in your example

_gaq.push(['_setCustomVar', 1, 'city', 'delhi', 3]);
