DevTools status.

The current console patches are found on bug 545266 and bug 546708 - also try builds will start once things are actually usable - I hope end of next week. It turns out that trying to attach (and keep attached) an arbitrary object on a nsIDOMWindow is a it of a pain - from outside the window's constructor. sicking told me about his patch for detecting new windows (before content scripts run) and attaching objects to them: bug 549539 - which landed late today. Yay. With this patch on trunk it should be trivial now to detect window construction and attach a console.

Whoops, forgot to mention that the console does log to the output, but once you navigate away, the console object attached to the window is destroyed.

I gave up on the html document approach for now, I think it can be worked out, just was spending too much time on it. For now, it is just a XUL vbox element where the output is appended to.

Next:

Work with the new window detection hooks to implement the observer that keeps window consoles re-appearing. Every load of the browser creates a new nsIDOMWindow - news to me, anyway.

Coordination:

I may need some initial "WIP CSS" help to pretty up the logging output. I'll try my hand at it next week after I have gotten the initial event handling worked out.

  • Looked at the regression ranges [ Regbugfixes/(Genbugfixes+Regbug_fixes) ] by component and by top 10 files [ by total bug fixes ] in each component and by overall top ten files [ by total bug fixes ] to identify any SPC spread exceptions.

  • Identified a bunch of source files that are part of 1.9.1 and no longer exist in trunk. What would have happened to the corresponding tests. Are they refactored ? retired or running as usual. If they are running as usual, then are they still testing what they are supposed to test ? In order to answer this question, I need to generate test case to source file mapping which would be many to many using modified code coverage test run scripts.

Next:

Design a test routine that executes tests one by one and collects test case to source file mapping.
