Rerun whole page without reloading/refetching scripts

I'm debugging javascript of a web application in a context where changing the actual javascript code on the server is very time consuming. How can I hack at the javascript code in the browser and have it persist when reloading?

It is not an option to use break points before the changed section and then re-applying the change. The nature of the bug is one of visual timing so I need to debug it visually without breakpoints.

Is there a browser plugin allowing this?

I went with using Fiddler on Windows in a VM. Not the simplest solution but once it was up and running it solved the problem. Fiddler allowed me to swap requested files for my local copies whenever requested.
